Abstract: Examines how the characteristics of an event alone do not create the tragedies that unfurl. This book explores why such vulnerabilities exist, what can be done to foster change, and how to reduce vulnerabilities and build capacity. It also provides strategies for community-based mitigation by engaging those populations most at risk.
