This book is about an unusual natural event and how communities and individuals respond to it. Following a period of well watered years, New-England experienced in the mid-1960's fide years of very low rainfall. This study is part of a small but (grown) literature which explores society's ability to cope with natural hagards. Mude of the early work in this field, outering on flood probleme, was undertaken at the university of Chicago under the direction of professor Gilbert white. His analysis of land use activitoes on the flood plain suggested that insurance programs and land use zoning might praide more efficient alternatives for communicatives (seeking) protection from flood domage than the physical structures upon which (....) traditionally have relied. The present study substantially broadens our understanding of community unter supply management, and suggest that expanding the physical system is not necessarily the most efficien response to anticipated shortage. |
