(2) But he has also been described as "one of the most original thinkers in transport today: one who is not afraid to butcher a few sacred cows". (3) In this book, Risk and Freedom, Adams gives us a reasonable opportunity to assess his knowledge, understanding and wisdom. | Journal Title | American Association for Automotive Medicine Quarterly Journal | Journal Volume (Issue) | 9 | Page Range | 13-14 | Notes | Available from CASR library on request |
