Practitioners constantly emphasize the necessity of a holistic
approach and I am pleased to see this new book does just that. It
is also important to blend theory with practice in this hands-on
field; again this is accomplished by authors who have extensive
academic and business continuity and emergency management
experience. They bring the subject to life with rich teaching and
learning features, making it an essential read for students and
practitioners alike.
