内容説明・目次
内容説明
Hazards is a new title in the Our Future, Our World series, which examines topics of contemporary importance. It looks at many issues, including different types of hazards, the location of certain human activities in areas where the risk from disaster is greater, and the way we respond to major disasters in order to minimise the repercussions. Issues may also arise when the people involved have different economic abilities to respond to a disaster, or where the response itself poses risks because of the physical character of the location. Students are encouraged to investigate a variety of issues which are involved in decision making relating to hazard management.
