The Price of Panic: How Much Were You Willing to Pay?

The following article is my “Cliff’s Notes” version of The Price of Panic by Axe, Briggs, & Richards. It was published in mid-2020. The book is about 200 pages long. It’s heavily-endnoted. This version is only about 3000 words long, and I make no attempt to cite any of their endnotes. My additions for clarification are in [brackets].

I tried to snag all their important points, but if something seems missing, you’ll have to read the book yourself. I’ll even send you my copy, if you promise to pass it along to someone else when you’re done.
