Managing Crises: Responses to Large-Scale Emergencies (Paperback)

Review

Managing Crises fills a glaring need in the public administration literature to address how managers practically respond to extreme situations. For students of decision-making, policy planning and implementation, and organizational behavior, these studies will prove invaluable. –Herbert E. Gooch III, California Lutheran UniversityManaging Crises provides a wide-ranging, in-depth examination of a variety of catastrophic and emergency situations. Its main strength is its clear-eyed presentation of a variety of crisis management situations. This book will be an extremely valuable resource for courses dealing with emergency management, disaster response and recovery, homeland security, and incident command. It could also be used as a supplementary text in courses in the areas of public administration, intergovernmental relations, public policy and sociology. –Steven D. Stehr, Washington State University
