This book develops a typology of crisis narratives (accounts of blame, stories of renewal, victim narratives, heroic tales, and memorials), that provide an organizing framework for analyzing crises and understanding how competing stories battle for dominance in the wake of a disaster.

Theorizing Crisis Communication presents a comprehensive review and critique of the broad range of theoretical frameworks designed to explain the role of communication in the development, management, and consequences of natural and man-made crises.

Written for those charged with delivering risk messages to the public, this book constructs a communication-based approach to the subject. It establishes a message-centered focus and uses a best-practice approach as a grounded theory for process improvement.
