The Chain of Kindness by Paul Tudor Jones
In a book as illuminating as it is captivating, Thomas E. Drabek presents an in-depth analysis of the emotional impacts of disaster events and the many ripple effects that follow.
Through the technique of storytelling, a series of nine fictional stories where characters experience actual disasters of different types throughout the United States illustrate the vulnerabilities and resilience to enhance the readers understanding of disaster consequences. Designed for classroom use, each story is followed by an Analysis section wherein discussion and research paper topics are recommended. These highlight links to published research findings. A References section details citations for all works included. Brief commentary in a Notes section adds further connections to other disasters and relevant research studies.
The Sociology of Disaster is an important innovation in disaster education and will become an invaluable resource within universities and colleges that offer degrees in emergency management at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.
