Summary

"This volume is the outcome of three regional seminars on natural disaster in relation to the human community, organized in the Department of Behavioural Sciences of James Cook University.
The good public response to the printing of the proceedings of the first seminar has prompted this augmented edition which incorporates the papers delivered at all three North Queensland seminars, plus other papers contributed by academic researchers." -- Acknowledgements.
