灾害研究领域的社区、组织、管理机构、政策和个人之间的相互联系从未得到过准确的检验或全面的建模。此类研究对于规划政策和应急响应、评估个人和社区的脆弱性、复原力和可持续性以及减缓和适应气候变化影响至关重要；因此值得关注。
灾害和社会复原力通过向灾害研究领域引入一种新的方法和模型来检查和衡量灾害的影响和应对措施，从而填补了这一空白。尤里·布朗芬布伦纳的生物生态系统理论用于从整体上看待群落，通过一系列章节进行概述和说明，通过针对布朗芬布伦纳生态系统各个层面的研究插图和应用，引导读者了解该理论的基础，最后在整合章节中达到高潮。最后一章为地方和国家政府机构以及应急提供者提供了政策建议，以帮助个人和社区做好准备并抵御一系列灾害的影响。
灾害和应急管理、备灾和降低风险（DRR）领域的学者和学生以及更一般的气候变化和可持续性研究的学者和学生将对本书感兴趣。
The interconnectedness of communities, organisations, governing bodies, policy and individuals in the field of disaster studies has never been accurately examined or comprehensively modelled. This kind of study is vital for planning policy and emergency responses and assessing individual and community vulnerability, resilience and sustainability as well as mitigation and adaptation to climate change impacts; it therefore deserves attention.
Disasters and Social Resilience fills this gap by introducing to the field of disaster studies a fresh methodology and a model for examining and measuring impacts and responses to disasters. Urie Bronfenbrenner's bioecological systems theory, which is used to look at communities holistically, is outlined and illustrated through a series of chapters, guiding the reader from the theory's underpinnings through research illustrations and applications focused on each level of Bronfenbrenner's ecosystems, culminating in an integration chapter. The final chapter provides policy recommendations for local and national government bodies and emergency providers to help individuals and communities prepare and withstand the effects of a range of disasters.
This book will be of great interest to scholars and students of disaster and emergency management, disaster readiness and risk reduction (DRR), and to scholars and students of more general climate change and sustainability studies.
