All led to loss of life and loss of livelihoods, and recovery will take years. One of the likely effects of climate change is to increase the likelihood of the type of extreme weather events that seems to cause these disasters. But do extreme events have to turn into disasters with huge loss of life and suffering? 'Dull Disasters?' harnesses lessons from finance, political science, economics, psychology, and the natural sciences to show how countries and their partners can be far better prepared to deal with disasters. 606 $aEmergency management 606 $aCrisis management 606 $aOrganizational resilience 615 0$aEmergency management. 615 0$aCrisis management. 615 0$aOrganizational resilience. 676 $a363.348 700 $aClarke$b Daniel J$g(Daniel Jonathan),$f1980-$0893908 702 $aDercon$b Stefan 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910137022103321 996 $aDull disasters$91996854 997 $aUNINA
