#EMReadingList: Day off & re-reading Amanda Ripley's (2008) The Unthinkable, the next @Epicenter_EM book club pick. As always I'll share items for EM/disaster mgmt folks as I go. Looking at those tabs there should be lots. #EMGTwitter if you've read it, what are your takeaways?
A motto for disaster/EM researchers&students: "Knowledge will grow scientific only after the most faithful examination of many catastrophies"(vii) from Samuel H. Prince's 1920 Catastrophe & Social Change, i.e. the first study of disaster, the one about the 1917 Halifax explosion.
