| 520 | |a Disaster is defines as a crisis situation causing wide spread damage which far exceeds our ability to recover. Thus, by definition, there cannot be a perfect ideal system that prevents damage, because then it would not be a disaster. It has to suffocate our ability to recover.

It is expected that the book would serve the interests of the students as source of information for understanding and appreciating the finer aspects of disaster management. | ||
