This thought-provoking book presents a compelling account of recent and historical disasters, both natural and human-caused, drawing out common themes and providing a holistic understanding of hazards, disasters and mitigation, for anyone interested in this important and topical subject. Based on his on-the-ground experience with several major recent disasters, Timothy H. Dixon explores the science, politics and economics behind a variety of disasters and environmental issues, arguing that many of the worst effects are avoidable. He describes examples of planning and safety failures, provides forecasts of future disasters and proposes solutions for hazard mitigation. The book shows how billions of dollars and countless lives could be saved by adopting longer-term thinking for infrastructure planning and building, and argues that better communication is vital in reducing global risks and preventing future catastrophes. 606 $aNatural disasters$xPrevention 606 $aEmergency management 606 $aEmergency management 606 $aHazard mitigation 615 0$aNatural disasters$xPrevention. 615 0$aEmergency management. 615 0$aEmergency management. 615 0$aHazard mitigation. 676 $a363.34/7 686 $aSCI019000$2bisacsh 700 $aDixon$b Timothy H.$0853644 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910159459603321 996 $aCurbing catastrophe$91906023 997 $aUNINA
