Abstract
Description
In other words, this report attempts to make a reader aware of the major
factors that have to be taken into account in disaster planning, what misconceptions
about stress behavior have to be avoided in disaster plans, why certain problems
are likely to arise despite what planners may do, and what can or cannot be planned.What is presented is a general way of thinking about community disaster problems.
The assumption is that the specifics of any given disaster plan have to be filled
in by each particular reader depending on the nature of his community, the likelihood
of threats to it, and the resources that are available.
