The uniqueness of this volume is that it comprises  more than just the physical science perspective.\u003cbr\u003e  For each natural hazard included in this text, social scientists have  provided research summaries of how public perceptions are related to  the actions that are likely to be undertaken when people are  confronted with information about the existence of a natural hazard  threat.\u003cbr\u003e  In this book the reader can find a truly international  characterization of both hazard perception and prediction. The  American and European contributors provide state-of-the-science  overviews of empirically-based research knowledge that expands beyond  any national boundaries. This approach has resulted in broader  understanding of what is currently known about predicting natural  hazard events and predicting how those events, or warnings of them,  will be responded to by different types of societies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-12-15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789048142897\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-8190-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 214\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398489141388,"sku":"9789048142897","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789048142897.jpg?v=1755435313","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789048142897","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
