Superstorm Sandy: The Inevitable Destruction and Reconstruction of the Jersey Shore - Nature, Society, and Culture
Diane C. Bates
Why do people build in areas open to repeated natural disasters? And why do they return to these areas in the wake of major devastation? Drawing on a variety of insights from environmental sociology, Superstorm Sandy answers these questions as it looks at both the unique character of the Jersey Shore and the more universal ways that humans relate to their environment.
