Book Reviews of Avoiding Disaster: How to Keep Your Business Going When Catastrophe Strikes
Book Review: Complete and Factual
Summary: 5 Stars
As an instructor in the emergency management field, I found this book to be concise and on-target with respect to preparing for, responding to, and recovering from disasters...both public and private. Mr. Laye's ability to convey the reason and methods of preparedness and response is apparently based on experience and in-depth research. Well outlined and a must for any manager concerned with business survival following virtually any disaster.
