{"product_id":"dont-panic-jerome-chertkoff-9780275962685","title":"Don't Panic: The Psychology of Emergency Egress and Ingress","description":"Why do people sometimes behave aggressively during emergency egress or ingress, knocking down and trampling on others, which disrupts flow and causes blockages, while other times people move in a smooth, coordinated manner? This book contains a comparative analysis of case histories of bad versus good emergency escape. Included are some of the most well-known cases in U.S. history, such as the Iroquois Theatre fire, the Cocoanut Grove fire, and the World Trade Center bombing. Drawing from investigative reports and authoritative sources, the authors present accounts of the circumstances surrounding each case and give 10 factors that are usually the cause for disastrous consequences. This book will be of interest to students and faculty in the fields of psychology, urban planning, and U.S. history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jerome Chertkoff, Russell Kushigian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0275962687\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780275962685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.58h x 6.38w x 0.65d","brand":"Jerome Chertkoff","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47202115649791,"sku":"9780275962685","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_328e589d-f2cb-4fcb-bd79-480bc48e4b1b.jpg?v=1756819685","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dont-panic-jerome-chertkoff-9780275962685","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
