A Dangerous World informs the reader of the need for disaster
preparedness. Topics covered include overpopulation, the economy,
environmental pollution and global warming. Other topics include
terrorism, Islamic fundamentalism, NBC Warfare and epidemics
including the current H1N1 influenza outbreak. Natural disasters
including famines, floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and
tsunamis are also discussed. The second part of the book informs
the reader how to access and interpret his personal vulnerability
to disaster situations using the Raven Vulnerability Index. Once
assessed, the reader can determine those areas that need
improvement and follow the corrective measures outlined in the
book. He can also choose his desired preparedness level using the
Preparedness Level Scale and outline a long term program to reach
that goal.
