Details about Emergency Response and Emergency Management Law: Cases and Materials:
The nine years since publication of the first edition of Emergency Response and Emergency Management Law have seen major changes in the laws that govern the structure and substance of emergency response and emergency management. The first edition came out only two years after the 9/11 attacks, and subsequent legal revisions had only begun to shake the foundations of the disciplines at that time. During the intervening years, major events such as Hurricane Katrina and laws created in response have altered the legal landscape. New governmental structures were created in the aftermath of 9/11. The role and importance of emergency management transformed. The legal terrain changed so markedly that many voices arose clamoring for a revision of the book. Charles C Thomas, Publisher, Ltd. is very pleased to present this much-anticipated second edition.
