TAILIEUCHUNG - PUBLIC HEALTH – SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH

With the great voyages in the fifteenth century it became necessary to evaluate the damage caused by the potential loss of ships. Emerges then the term risk, with connotations similar to what is meant today, but the understanding of its causes was related to accidents and, therefore, impossible to predict. The development of classical probability theory, in the midseventeenth century, to solve problems related to gambling, allowed the start of the process of quantifying the risks, but the causes were still credited to chance | PUBLIC HEALTH - SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH Edited by Jay Maddock Public Health - Social and Behavioral Health Edited by Jay Maddock Published by InTech Janeza Trdine 9 51000 Rijeka Croatia Copyright 2012 InTech All chapters are Open Access distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution license which allows users to download copy and build upon published articles even for commercial purposes as long as the author and publisher are properly credited which ensures maximum dissemination and a wider impact of our publications.
