Produktbeschreibung

An analytical critique of the multidisciplinary issues involved in anticipating and rebuilding from disasters, this book introduces the theoretical constructs and conceptual foundations of disaster management. Contributors examine case studies of natural disasters around the world, and compare and contrast the efficacy of different management strategies from national, provincial, and local governments, as well as non-governmental agencies. They examine the issues faced by emergency personnel, present strategies for limiting the psychological impact on victims and first-responders, and discuss how to prepare for the future and rebuild stronger, more resilient communities.
