ABSTRACT

The message of this volume is clear—if we are to be sufficient in our preventive interventions, we must expand our view beyond our own singular disciplines to include the disciplines of others. It is not sufficient to enact laws requiring the use of seat belts if a large portion of the population refuses to wear them despite the law. The discipline of law needs to be joined by other disciplines, such as psychology, sociology, and anthropology, in a united effort to further raise the probability that seat belts will be worn.
