I had this as a text for a Risk Analysis graduate level course. I am not a great fan this text for this course.
While there is good information, the author is really promoting his FRAAP process. It also lacks in the development of ideas for those that do not have a risk background. With a full 75% of the book written as appendices of many similar tables, I feel that more descriptions of the processes of analysis and assessment would have been of greater benefit.
Just my two cents.
