Instead, a shift in policy should be made to use America's private sector...

ISBN: 9781505318845 / Angielski / Miękka / 82 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This book found that the existing systems for natural disasters and planned events were slow to implement and would not provide the authority and protections required for response to a no-notice event. Our conclusion is...
