Recent events worldwide have made disaster preparedness and disaster communication to the public a crucial concern. September 11th, the Indian Ocean tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and other mega-disasters have highlighted not only a woeful lack of community awareness of vulnerability but also the absence of a clear protocol for what to do as events unfold. The first book dedicated solely to the topic of pre-disaster communication, Communicating Emergency Preparedness: Strategies for Creating a Disaster Resilient Public presents the best ways to inform communities about disaster risk factors, response plans, and emergency procedures without fomenting panic or paranoia.

A public awareness campaign is the critical tool to help communities prepare themselves and to mitigate the human and economic impact of disasters. The authors provide an overview and history of public disaster preparedness education and then proceed to explore risk management and the development of a campaign strategy. They include specific instruction on how those charged with developing these programs can obtain funding from donors, foundations, and government grants.

Real Examples of Successful Programs

The second half of the book features a series of case studies which identify various public awareness campaigns that have been successfully conducted in different communities. The text provides program facts and contact information for those who designed and executed the campaigns to enable communities to model their own efforts based on what has worked in the past.

Recognizing that knowledge is the best defense, this comprehensive, practical resource provides public administration officials, emergency managers, evacuation coordinators, and community leaders at the local and national level with the background and tools needed to plan, design, and carry out effective public disaster preparedness campaigns.

This book helps primary care physicians understand their roles in preparing for and responding to terrorist events. With a practical approach, the text considers the physical and psychological impact of terrorism on providers and patients who are directly affected, as well as the spillover effects in more distant geographic locals. Proactive measures are outlined, such as educating patients about protective recommendations, addressing concerns about risk, and reporting credible risks to the proper authorities. The text also details how to detect terrorist-caused illness as early as possible, how to provide therapy to defend against or prevent illness, and how to treat patients with terrorist-caused illness. In-depth coverage of biologic agents (anthrax, plague, smallpox, botulism, tularemia, and hemorrhagic viruses), chemical agents (nerve and blister), and radiologic agents that terrorists are likely to use is provided. Readers also learn how to counsel families traumatized by terrorist threats and activities.

In addition, the text takes a hard look at the structure, function, and current planning efforts of the public health system at the local, state, and federal levels. An emphasis is placed on how physicians can work with public health officials to ensure that preventive and therapeutic measures are delivered effectively, legally, and ethically.

The Maturation of Homeland Security: Moving to a Networked Response

Improved coordination and planning can now allow us a quick return to business as usual

Since the first edition of Critical Infrastructure: Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness published almost four years ago, significant advances in how we approach the safekeeping of our nation’s most critical infrastructures have come to fruition. To keep emergency management, disaster response, and homeland security personnel fully current, Radvanovsky and McDougall have now updated their essential reference.

Keeping pace with changes in laws and policies made by the Department of Homeland Security, this new edition also adds information to reflect the development of the Incident Command System (ICS) and the total revision of National Response Framework (NRF), implemented in 2008. The book expands sections on the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Homeland Security Presidential Directives, and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisitions Systems (SCADA) security initiatives.

Includes Downloadable Web References

In addition to being a comprehensive source of highly useful reference material, this timely work also introduces the paradigm shift in thinking that is subtly moving us away from the Force Protection Doctrine toward an All-Hazards approach to CIP. To this end, it re-introduces the term called Critical Infrastructure Assurance (CIA). Keeping pace with this development, the authors demonstrate how emergency management and CIA go hand in hand.

This changing world of ours in which emergency preparedness is finding a permanent niche requires us to integrate and incorporate emergency management and homeland security concepts with infrastructure assurance options. Ultimately, to keep our society both prepare and psychologically healthy we must be able to assure that infrastructure services will continue operating no matter what disaster may befall us.
