Description

All around the world there are charities ready to respond to emergencies, from huge natural disasters like earthquakes and industrial accidents like the Fukushima nuclear plant, to civil disorder and daily accidents like capsized boats and mountain rescue. This book looks at the efforts of charity workers and volunteers, with exciting stories and case studies, and gives advice on how readers can get involved.
