Bowles, Steve
Horizons, n3 p13-15 Aut 1997
Reviews "Quality Work with Young People" (John Huskins, 1996) and other writings of the 1990s concerned with outdoor adventure education, youth work, "risk," and risk management. Compares these works with those of the 1970s. Criticizes deterministic trends in adventure education "interventions" and the present-day demand for risk-free zones of professional competence. (SV)
