Tsunami
Ian Graham
- Reading
- Browse the contents together first, then pause after a case study to discuss which details come from personal accounts and which explain the science.
- Themes
- Disaster experience and response: The book brings together accounts from survivors and emergency services with sections on response, recovery and reconstruction. It offers several vantage points on disaster response rather than a single account.
- Science and explanation: The book includes scientists at work and presents facts, a timeline, and physical causes and effects. The scientific sections appear intended to explain how tsunami events work.
- Worth knowing
- The subject includes disaster zones, the section title “Killer waves”, and Fukushima Daiichi; the level of detail is unclear.
