The second edition of this leading textbook provides the definitive
guide to disaster health management. From the key concepts, principles
and terminology, to systems for mitigation, planning, response and
recovery, it gives readers a comprehensive overview of every aspect of
this emerging field. Split into eight parts, the book begins by
drawing the parameters of disaster health management before outlining
key elements such as communication, community engagement and legal
issues. It then moves on to discuss preparing for potential disasters,
managing and mitigating their impact, and then recovering in the
aftermath. Offering key insights into evaluation, leadership and the
psychosocial aspects of disaster health management, the new edition
also features a range of international case studies, including those
outlining the management of COVID-19. It is essential reading for both
students and practitioners engaging in this important work.
