Disaster Theory: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Concepts and
Causes offers the theoretical background needed to understand what
disasters are and why they occur. Drawing on related disciplines,
including sociology, risk theory, and seminal research on disasters
and emergency management, Disaster Theory clearly lays out the
conceptual framework of the emerging field of disaster studies.
Tailored to the needs of advanced undergraduates and graduate
students, this unique text also provides an ideal capstone for
students who have already been introduced to the fundamentals of
emergency management. Disaster Theory emphasizes the application of
critical thinking in understanding disasters and their causes by
synthesizing a wide range of information on theory and practice,
including input from leading scholars in the field.
