Обложка John Grattan & Robin Torrence: Natural Disasters and Cultural Change (ePUB)

This book explores these interactions in detail and revisits some famous catastrophes including the eruptions of Thera and Vesuvius. These studies demonstrate that diverse human cultures had well-developed strategies which facilitated their response to extreme natural events.
