"e;What a wonderful resource!"e;--Doody's Medical Reviews"e;The 4th Edition is unique in recognizing the rapid changes in both the causes of crises and the latest attempts to provide timely multidisciplinary approaches to the practice of this growing specialty...Evident throughout this edition is the call to identify crisis leadership among the increasingly talented base of nurses who have responsibility to move the profession to recognize and accept that they can be advocates for better planning, coordination, education and training."e;- Frederick M. Burkle, Jr., MD, MPH, DTM, PhD(Hon.), FAAP, FACEPSenior Fellow & Scientist, Harvard Humanitarian Initiative, Harvard University & T.C. Chan School of Public HealthFrom the Foreword"e;This impressive edition builds upon the solid foundation of the first three award-winning editions with an expanded focus on climate change related disasters, globalization and its implications for emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, the accommodation of high-risk, high-vulnerability populations, and the potential for disaster arising from a world witnessing increasing community violence and civil unrest."e;-Patricia M. Davidson, PhD, MED, RN, FAANProfessor & Dean, Johns Hopkins School of NursingFrom the Foreword"e;The contributing authors read like a "e;Who's Who"e; of disaster leaders. They lend their special expertise and insights, which are supported and elucidated by cogent learning strategies in the use of case studies, student questions, and packed content in all areas of disaster participation, preparedness, policies, and research. For over 16 years [this book] has been the hallmark text in its field and this edition proves to be the best ever."e;-Loretta C.

Disasters lay heavy burdens upon healthcare systems that stretch all levels of society. While natural and man-made disasters are not new, the global nature, rate, type, and totality of their impact has only increased. The fourth edition of this foundational text uniquely addresses the rapid changes in these crises and analyzes the latest attempts to provide timely, multidisciplinary healthcare.Nurses consistently comprise seventy or more percent of responders to local, national, regional, and global crises, and represent a potentially untapped resource to achieve surge capacity goals and optimize population health outcomes.

Whenever possible, content is mapped to published core competencies for preparing health professions' students for response to terrorism, disaster events, and public health emergencies. The fourth edition retains the clearly organized format in each chapter that includes an overview, learning objectives, a summary, and case study with reflective questions.New to the Fourth Edition:Addresses the most recent landmark agreementsSendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, and the Paris Climate AgreementCovers public health emergencies involving community violence and civil unrestExpands coverage of planning for and accommodating high-risk, high-vulnerability populationsAligns with the U.S. National Health Security Strategy and the National Planning FrameworksProvides focused content on medical countermeasuresIncludes an improved instructor package with guide, PowerPoint slides, and case studies with questions for reflection in every chapter
