Book Description
From extreme weather events such as Superstorm Sandy, man-made tragedies like the Madrid train bombings, the threat of bioterrorism, and emerging infections such as the H1N1 pandemic flu, disasters are creating increasingly profound threats to health of populations around the globe. Through a presentation of 16 case studies of events from natural disasters to pandemic infection, the authors examine the broad range of public health scenarios through the lens of emergency preparedness and planning. This text demonstrates the application of public health preparedness competencies established by the Association of Schools of Public Health (ASPH). It is designed for students across a wide spectrum of health and safety disciplines, and makes an ideal complement to any text on disaster preparedness or public health leadership, or can be used as a standalone text. --

Book Description
A hurricane is a tropical storm with winds that have reached a constant speed of 74 miles per hour or more. Hurricane winds blow in a large spiral around a relative calm centre known as the "eye." The "eye" is generally 20 to 30 miles wide, and the storm may extend outward 400 miles. As a hurricane approaches, the skies will begin to darken and winds will grow in strength. As a hurricane nears land, it can bring torrential rains, high winds, and storm surges. A single hurricane can last for more than 2 weeks over open waters and can run a path across the entire length of the eastern seaboard. August and September are peak months during the hurricane season that lasts from 1 June to 30 November. This book presents the facts and history of hurricanes.
