    About this ebook

    Using a mixed-method approach, Unintended Consequences of Human Actions documents a wide range of unintended and unanticipated consequences of human actions. The major message is the urgent need to review a range of possible outcomes of human actions. During these fragile times 'looking down the road' has become imperative.

      Niki Bezzant (“I’ll have what he’s having”, March 4) may be dead right about the clitoris but her first paragraphs about male anatomy are wrong in relation to the male foreskin. The silence on the foreskin, in medical texts and sex manuals in the Eng
