Unlike existing books on the topic that cover more on non-economic
aspects of natural disasters, this book covers economic aspects of
natural disasters viz damage assessment, risk management and
resilience. The book contains several case studies and covers some
of the major natural disasters in different countries, most notably
the recent Nepal earthquake, tsunami in Fukushima, the Indian Ocean
earthquake and tsunami, floods in Thailand, the typhoon Haiyan, and
the eruptions of Mount Merapi. It also suggests avenues for better
public policies to tackle economics of natural disasters.
