- W2757103551 abstract "Father and son, Paul and Scott Slovic have drawn on their different but related areas of expertise—psychology and literature—to produce this valuable collection of work treating a politically and ethically consequential problem. On the one hand, numerical data are crucial for establishing the magnitude, intensity, and imminence of any danger. Among other things, we need statistics to make a reasonable assessment of the likely harm to humans and nonhumans from terrorism, climate change, or any other threat. For example, the editors present statistics suggesting that mass atrocities, the killing “of at least one thousand noncombatants from a distinct group in a period of sustained violence,” have caused death at roughly fifteen times the rate of terrorist attacks (29). But our emotional and motivational responses to threats are not congruent with our calculations. Thus, many people’s worry over terrorism is far stronger than their concern about genocide—not to mention such future dangers as devastating environmental collapse. Emotionally, we respond to particulars, to concrete images. The problem posed by Numbers and Nerves is how we might reconcile the intellectual necessity of calculations, which tend to be numerical and abstract, with the emotional necessity of particular, concrete experiences." @default.
