Disaster is everywhere. Probably, because of disaster, you are prompted to read this book. However, this book emphasises that we can prevent conversion of hazards into disaster if we do not have poverty, malnutrition and illiteracy. Based on extensive field work in India and Nepal, this book has not only made sense of the various disaster recovery programs and existing practices, but has also proposed an innovative recovery platform, after a comprehensive evaluation. According to the book, this would include the prompt formulation of an all new ¿Disaster Recovery Centre¿ in India, which can be replicated in all countries. Apart from cyclones and floods, earthquakes have been of special focus in the book. Of possible interest to disaster managers, policy makers, and academicians, this book will also be relevant for anyone interested in the field of disaster management, which is a critical issue across the world today. In the event of a disaster, it is the recovery phase in fact, that provides several mitigation and development opportunities.
