An introduction to hazards, human vulnerability and disaster,
paying particular attention to the more severe or novel risks and
disaster that affect the general public. The book is split into two
parts, the first of which gives an overview of the field of risk
and disaster in terms of three perspectives: hazards perspective;
vulnerability perspective and the active perspective. The second
part illustrates and develops these ideas in relation to some of
the more severe dangers and disasters of the twentieth century, for
example, earthquake risk, cities at risk and the civil disasters of
war.
