520    "Assessment of risk and uncertainty is crucial for natural
       hazard risk management, facilitating risk communication 
       and informing strategies to successfully mitigate our 
       society's vulnerability to natural disasters. Written by 
       some of the world's leading experts, this book provides a 
       state-of-the-art overview of risk and uncertainty 
       assessment in natural hazards. It presents the core 
       statistical concepts using clearly defined terminology 
       applicable across all types of natural hazards and 
       addresses the full range of sources of uncertainty, the 
       role of expert judgement and the practice of uncertainty 
       elicitation. The core of the book provides detailed 
       coverage of all the main hazard types and concluding 
       chapters address the wider societal context of risk 
       management. This is an invaluable compendium for academic 
       researchers and professionals working in the fields of 
       natural hazards science, risk assessment and management 
       and environmental science and will be of interest to 
       anyone involved in natural hazards policy"--Publisher
