Book Description:
Hugo... Andrew... Felix... Fran... The names of hurricanes that have devastated the Caribbean region are firmly implanted in the minds of those who survived them. Beyond the scrutiny of the press and television cameras, those survivors often struggle not only with the destruction left in the hurricane's wake but also with the chaotic and disruptive circumstances brought about by massive infusions of well-intentioned "aid." In After the Hurricane, Philip R. Berke and Timothy Beatley present state-of-the-art research on recovery programs that work -- programs that provide immediate aid to victims and lay the basis for sustainable development and growth.Drawing on three years of extensive field research on Jamaica, Antigua, Montserrat, and St. Kitts and Nevis, Berke and Beatley offer detailed analysis of the effects of two recent major hurricanes -- Gilbert in 1988 and Hugo in 1989.
