About this product

Product Information

Policy analysis performed in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, which devastated the Gulf Coast in 2005, tends to focus on what went wrong in the post-disaster emergency response. Certainly there are plenty of dispiriting tales to tell about government inaction or perceived incompetence on that front. Such analysis is critically important, of course. This book, however, occupies a different and somewhat more positive niche. Resilience and Opportunity examines the important ingredients in post-disaster recovery, with an eye toward how to rebuild communities that are more resilient and prosperous in the face of multiple disasters.
