描述 | This collection of articles provides a unique overview of thestate of the science in the prediction of and response to naturaldisaster events. The uniqueness of this volume is that it comprisesmore than just the physical science perspective..For each natural hazard included in this text, social scientists haveprovided research summaries of how public perceptions are related tothe actions that are likely to be undertaken when people areconfronted with information about the existence of a natural hazardthreat..In this book the reader can find a truly internationalcharacterization of both hazard perception and prediction. TheAmerican and European contributors provide state-of-the-scienceoverviews of empirically-based research knowledge that expands beyondany national boundaries. This approach has resulted in broaderunderstanding of what is currently known about predicting naturalhazard events and predicting how those events, or warnings of them,will be responded to by different types of societies.. |
