Disaster Management and Preparedness

Having read the book cover to cover, and having Schneid as a professor for the related course itself, I would say that this is a very helpful book in learning about disasters and the different elements necessary for creating a company disaster plan. Overall, the book is great. The only complaint about the book I have is that it only outlines different ways to write a disaster plan. I learn well by example, and there was no format or layout of a disaster plan within the book itself to reference or view as a "plan in action." If you are looking for a text to summarize and explain the elements of a disaster plan or are a student debating whether the book is really worth buying for a class, I highly recommend this text.
