The Dynamics of Disaster - Book by Susan W. Kieffer
In The Dynamics of Disaster, geologist Susan W. Kieffer explores the interconnectedness of natural disasters, emphasizing that despite their unique appearances, they are governed by a small set of natural laws. She argues that humans continue to build in disaster-prone areas, relying on technology to protect them, but often fail to prevent devastation due to a lack of understanding. Kieffer explains that the most apparent cause of a disaster isn't always the true source of destruction, citing examples like the transformation of solid ground into quicksand during the 2010 Haiti earthquake. She advocates for a deeper understanding of disaster dynamics to improve engineering and policies that reduce their impact.
