Synopsis Disasters are increasing with the move to material civilization, urbanization, industrialization and greed. With this new cult, even natural disasters are occurring because of the disturbances in natural equilibrium caused by the greed and lust of human beings to exploit natural resources to get rich quickly. This book "Disaster Administration and Management : Text and Case Studies" has been divided into 19 chapters. This book would be of great use to policy-makers and planners as well as academicians who are interested to save the succeeding generations from the courage of disasters.
