Description - Disaster Management: Planning for Emergencies by Kenneth Parker
Disaster management is the planning and organization of resources and programs as a response to natural and manmade disasters, hazards and emergency situations. It seeks to mitigate the negative effects of such events on humans, nature, resources and the built environment. Recognizing potential risks, taking precautionary measures and ideally eliminating them is one of the main tasks of disaster management. Spreading awareness about various disasters and response measures is another important aspect of this field. Distinguishing personal and community activities in the wake of a disaster is vital in this area. This book outlines the processes and applications of disaster management in detail. Through this book, we attempt to further enlighten the readers about the new concepts in this field.
