Emergency Planning

OCTOBER 21, 2022

One only hopes that land-use planning will stem the flood of new construction in areas that are prone to inundation by rivers that burst their banks and seas that rise up and surge inland, eating away at properties and coastal defences as they go.

The benefit of this book for me, as a business continuity practitioner, is within the tactical and operational insights and ideas it gives, rather than the strategic change I suspect the authors would like.
