Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Convergence Behavior in Disasters, a Problem in Social Control: A Special Report Prepared for the Committee on Disaster Studies Convergence behavior is widely recognized as a source of difficult problems in disaster. Some of its effects, such as traffic congestion, have received much attention. All too often, however, it is discussed in terms too general to be very helpful, as, for example, when the people who move toward the disaster site are lumped uncritically into the category of sight seers. By placing convergence in a broader context and making more refined and critical distinctions, the authors bring a fresh perspective to the problem. They distinguish and examine the major forms of convergence and the differ ent motivations which impel it, and they discuss the implications of these findings for developing methods and techniques of controlling convergence. Their findings and recommendations impinge upon the concerns of disaster organization planners; national, state, and local governmental officials; representatives of the press, radio, television, and other mass media of communication; transportation and traffic specialists; telephone, telegraph, and other technical communication specialists; police and law enforcement officials; and social and behavioral scientists of several disciplines.

Disasters such as the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the Indian Ocean Tsunami, and Hurricane Katrina illustrate the salience and complexity of disasters. Both scholars and practitioners therefore agree that we must take a more proactive and holistic approach to emergency management, which should logically be derived from a sound understanding of the academic literature and the most pressing concerns facing professionals in the field today. Disciplines, Disasters and Emergency Management reviews what is known about catastrophic events from the standpoint of various academic areas of study. The introdu.
