Book Methods of Disaster Research

Download or read book Methods of Disaster Research written by Robert A. Stallings and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2003-01-14 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The methods of disaster research are indistinguishable from those used throughout the social sciences. Yet these methods must be applied under unique circumstances. Researchers new to this field need to understand how the disaster context affects the application of the methods of research. This volume, written by some of the worlds leading specialists in disaster research, provides for the first time a primer on disaster research methods. Among the topics covered are qualitative field studies and survey research; underutilized approaches such as cross-national studies, simulations, and historical methods; and newer tools utilizing geographic information systems, the Internet, and economic modeling.
