Emphasizing non-traditional approaches to disaster recovery and rebuilding communities, this book brings together leading research on the ways various societies have experienced disasters, learned from them, and revised their thinking about building resiliency pre- and post-disaster. It includes numerous case studies that illustrate the difficulties that persist as societies attempt to overcome challenges and rebuild more disaster-resilient communities. All chapters offer diverse community examples that form a framework for comparing best practices - focusing on integrated solutions for ecological restoration and community development.
