The book's great strength is its ability to cut across many different types of disaster, showing teh common elements at each stage. The book's other special strength lies in its treatment of communications, which have often been a problem for organisations experiencing a major incident. Overall, this is a worthwhile and easily-accessible text - essential reading for anyone involved in emergency planning and business recovery. --Health & Safety at Work magazine
