paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. DETAILS: large PAPERBACK, fresh attractive copy, near fine, probably unused. SANDERSON, DAVID / KAYDEN, JEROLD S. / LEIS, JULIA, ed. . Urban disaster resilience: new dimensions from international practice in the built environment. New York, NY: Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2016, xvii, 216pp., . Accelerating urbanization worldwide means more urban-centered disasters. Floods, earthquakes, storms and conflicts affecting densely populated areas produce significant losses in lives, livelihoods and the built environment, especially in comparison to rural areas. Poor urban dwellers, almost always the most vulnerable, too often bear the brunt. Aid agencies and urban professionals have been slowly adapting to these new conditions, but older models and practices hinder the most effective engagements. Edited by David Sanderson, Jerold S. Kayden and Julia Leis, this book is a crucial read for humanitarian and disaster specialists, urban planners and designers, architects, landscape architects, housing and economic development professionals, and students interested in the subject, whether based in non-governmental organizations, local, state or national governments, international agencies, private firms, or the academy. - CONTENTS: Introduction : Urban disaster resilience: new dimensions from international practice in the built environment / David Sanderson -- Strengthening collaborations for urban disasters: a call to urban planners, designers and humanitarians / Jerold S.
