| Zusammenfassung: | "The book is organized to introduce the scientific basis of the disasters either early in the chapter or in a separate leading chapter. These are interspersed with case studies, but followed by a group of case studies to give the reader a flavor of the character of the processes and devastation. This organization coupled with the exciting and highly illustrated stories is intended to enhance interest and understanding. There are many types of natural disasters, and courses tend to emphasize certain types. This book contains as many types of natural disasters as could be included in a single book. It is not meant that courses should cover all of the topics, but that faculty members can choose the disasters that best fit their course."-- |
