The book is profusely illustrated, as it offers a joyride to the world of the whole range of hazards through simplified teaching-learning process, with less of teaching and more of learning. This is because most readers would love to learn without actually being taught. The book is designed to take advantage of distilled wisdom of centuries to inspire and enlighten the common man to turn them into prime movers of safer societies. Senior citizens, community leaders, self-trained disaster managers, social workers, media personnel, bureaucrats and those averse to the very thought of reading will also find the book useful as it is illustrative and inviting. 606 $aDisasters 606 $aEmergency management 615 0$aDisasters. 615 0$aEmergency management. 676 $a904.5 700 $aBhandari$b Rajendra Kumar$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0751835 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298385603321 996 $aDisaster education and management$91511384 997 $aUNINA
