Health Disparities, Disasters, and Crises: Approaches for a Culture of Preparedness is a comprehensive guide that provides a roadmap for addressing health disparities that arise during the pre-planning, planning, and mitigation phases of natural and technological disasters. This text, with contributions from 30 scholars in disaster management in public health, delves into the intersectionality of health disparities among different socioeconomic and racial/ethnic groups, as well as how social determinants contribute to the exposure and vulnerability to pandemic disasters and crises. Supported by examples from around the world, the chapters are supplemented with case studies of best practices, graphs, and tables. Each of the seven parts addresses various topics, such as the impact of disasters on marginalized communities, the consequences of health disparities, and the growing connection between global health, disaster planning/mitigation, and global security.
Written with the benefit of undergraduate and graduate students, working professionals, and academics in the US and abroad, Health Disparities, Disasters, and Crises: Approaches for a Culture of Preparedness offers the most comprehensive understanding of professional disaster management and safety for all citizens. It is also an ideal text for graduate and undergraduate courses in public health, public policy, medicine and nursing, healthcare administration, emergency management, emergency preparedness, homeland security, epidemiology, sociology, and medical sociology.
