✦ Synopsis

Reliability and Risk introduces a landmark framework for better analyzing and managing reliability and risk across our most vital critical infrastructures—from electricity and natural gas, to telecommunications, transportation, and water sources. To illustrate their approach in action, Paul R. Schulman and Emery Roe draw on a multi-year case study of one of the world's most important "infrastructure crossroads," the San Francisco Bay-Delta.
