	abstract={In this paper we show that omitted variables and publication bias lead to severely biased
estimates of the value of a statistical life. Although our empirical results are obtained in the
context of a study of choices about road safety, we suspect that the same issues plague the
estimation of monetary trade-offs regarding safety in other contexts.},
