Disasters (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9780737742510)

Books can inundate readers with facts and figures about disasters, but nothing is more memorable than personal, factual accounts that feel like they take you there as a witness.

They will hear stories of relief workers and professionals who gather instantly to help, heal, and rebuild. They will be enthralled by harrowing accounts from survivors. They will also hear how aid workers hope to find ways to improve relief efforts.
