This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of all the progress made by modern science and technology in penetrating the mysteries of nature and providing new possibilities for its transformation, we remain largely helpless in the face of such natural phenomena as earthquakes, tsunami, typhoons, floods, and droughts. Natural disasters occur suddenly, but with periodicity, and man has been confronted by their devastating consequences throughout history. The way people deal with these problems is primarily predetermined: by charac ter, by conditions, and by the social and economic development of society. Industri ous efforts to reconstruct nature, and exploitation of her resources, have brought about additional damage, and there is the apparent danger that our interference with the atmosphere and other areas such as climate, soil, and hydrology has initiated devastating processes which may well be irreversible. As a result, the effects of natural disasters, and all the ensuing repercussions, become ever more aggravating. Their scope becomes global, and for the time being we have no effective countermeasures at our disposal with which to fight them. The contemporary world, then, faces the interconnected and interdependent phenomena of ecological crises and natural disasters: the problem of protecting man from the environment, and the concurrent problem of protecting the environment from man.

This book was released on 1977 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Disasters result from breakdowns in the relationship between man and his environment. They are precipitated by man-made or environmental factors. Five operational activities are applicable to all disasters: 1) immediate post-disaster relief; 2) short-term rehabilitation; 3) reconstruction; 4) disaster mitigation and prevention; 5) preparedness for relief. The guide emphasizes: 1) preparedness planning for post-disaster relief operations; and 2) implementation of food supply, nutrition, medical, and health relief strategies. Important activities to support food and medical relief are included. The section on rehabilitation and reconstruction activities help to merge immediate action programs with long-range plans. Procedures for action may be defined in a series of workshops. Simple, inexpensive studies should fill gaps in information. Recommended actions are listed.

Download or read book Disaster Technology written by Diana H. Manning and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disaster Technology: An Annotated Bibliography presents an annotated bibliography of disaster technology. The references are arranged in the following sections: relief organization, medical aspects (planning, general, nutrition), sociological aspects, and physical aspects (general, earthquakes). The abstracts are arranged alphabetically by author's name in each section. Some of the controversial issues and the areas related to disaster technology are reviewed. This volume consists of seven chapters, the first of which introduces the reader to general aspects of relief work especially international disaster aid. Logistic, administrative, political, and economic factors are highlighted. The next three chapters deal with medical aspects of relief work and cover hospital disaster planning and surgical triage, medical problems arising from disasters, and nutritional problems of relevance to development as well as to disasters. Attention then turns to sociological studies of disasters that have been carried out in industrialized societies in general and America in particular. Some work on psychological and psychiatric factors is considered. The chapters on physical aspects of disaster relief includes literature on public health engineering, design for disaster (including emergency shelter), and prevention and warning techniques. Earthquakes are considered separately in the final chapter. This book is written to supply relief agencies with information on the published and unpublished literature available concerning technical aspects of disaster relief and prevention with special emphasis on developing countries. It is also intended to provide those involved in relevant research with information on disaster topics from other disciplines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community Health and Sanitation presents a community-sensitive approach to the developing world's water supply; for students, trainers and engineers alike. Deals with disease and problems of water in the house and at the source, waste disposal, and education and training. A community-sensitive approach to the developing world's water supply; for students, trainers and engineers alike Community Health and Sanitation deals with disease and problems of water in the house and at the source, waste disposal, and education and training. This is a companion book to the recently published Community Water Development, and, as with that volume, it was considered that publication of selected articles in book form would preserve the information as a valuable reference both for planners and workers in the field. Inevitably, although each volume could stand alone, several articles in each are relevant to the other: sanitation must progress simultaneously with water supply improvements, as is emphasized in many chapters.
