| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | This compelling book is essential reading for all those involved with risk management, disaster planning and security and safety management. The third edition includes a new introductory chapter that demonstrates on a theoretical and practical level a number of reasons why individuals and groups of people fail to learn from disasters in the first place. The book offers an important insight into the way organisations implement policies, systems and procedures to prevent future disasters occurring. The message is very clear: where organisations fail to learn from disasters, history is likely to repeat itself. |
