Descripción del artículo del vendedor

402 Pages Indexed. No defects to this pristine book with glossy laminated pictorial boards. Interior text pages are flawless. No country, community, or individual is immune to the impacts of disasters. Disasters can be prepared for, responded to, and their consequences mitigated. The profession and academic discipline that addresses this management of disasters is called emergency management, and this book is designed to provide the reader with a comprehensive foundation on the history, structure, organization, systems, and concerns that shape the management of disasters and other emergencies. Contained are details and descriptions of contemporary emergency management practices and this book will provide the reader with a working knowledge of how the functions of emergency management operate and the influence they can have on everyday life. This fourth edition represents the current status of the discipline. The 2001 terrorist attacks set in motion events that changed not only the way governments address the terrorism attacks but also the way members of the public, and businesses prepare for disaster events. Popular opinion is that these actions were mostly knee-jerk and the failed response to Hurricane Katrina confirmed such fears. In 2005, we saw a national system of emergency management-once regarded as one of the most effective and emulated systems in the world, proven incompetent in responding to an event that had been long predicted, planned for, and studied: Hurricane Katrina. Contents inn Ten Chapters: The Historical Contest of Emergency Management, Natural and Technological Hazards and Risk Assessment, The Disciplines of Emergency Management Mitigation, The Disciplines of Emergency Management Preparedness, The Disciplines of Emergency Management Communications, The Disciplines of Emergency Management Response, The Disciplines of Emergency Management Recovery, International Disaster Management, Emergency Management and the Terrorist Threat, and the Future of Emergency Management.…
