Tomorrow, some of us will have to make split-second choices to save ourselves and our families. How will we react? What will it feel like? Will we be heroes or victims? Will our upbringing, our gender, our personality--anything we've ever learned, thought, or dreamed of--ultimately matter? Journalist Amanda Ripley set out to discover what lies beyond fear and speculation, retracing the human response to some of history's epic disasters. She comes back with wisdom about the surprising humanity of crowds, the elegance of the brain's fear circuits, and the stunning inadequacy of many of our evolutionary responses. Most unexpectedly, she discovers the brain's ability to do much, much better, with just a little help.--Publisher information. 650 0 $a Resilience (Personality trait) 650 0 $a Disasters $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Disaster relief. 650 0 $a Preparedness. 650 0 $a Risk management. 650 0 $a Emergency management. 650 0 $a Crisis intervention (Mental health services) 650 0 $a Disaster victims $x Mental health. 650 0 $a Disasters $x Risk assessment. 650 0 $a Adaptability (Psychology) 650 0 $a Disasters. 650 0 $a Mental health services. 650 1 $a Civil defense. 650 12 $a Adaptation, Psychological 650 22 $a Disasters 650 22 $a Relief Work 650 22 $a Civil Defense $x methods 650 22 $a Risk Management 650 22 $a Mental Health Services 650 2 $a Crisis Intervention 650 6 $a ReÌsilience (Trait de personnaliteÌ) 650 6 $a Secours aux victimes de catastrophes. 650 6 $a EÌtat de preÌparation. 650 6 $a Gestion du risque. 650 6 $a Intervention en situation de crise (SanteÌ mentale) 650 6 $a Victimes de catastrophes $x SanteÌ mentale. 650 6 $a Catastrophes $x EÌvaluation du risque. 650 6 $a Adaptation (Psychologie) 650 6 $a Catastrophes. 650 6 $a Services de santeÌ mentale. 650 7 $a risk management. $2 aat 650 7 $a disasters. $2 aat 650 7 $a Mental health services $2 fast 650 7 $a Disasters $2 fast 650 7 $a Adaptability (Psychology) $2 fast 650 7 $a Crisis intervention (Mental health services) $2 fast 650 7 $a Disaster relief $2 fast 650 7 $a Disaster victims $x Mental health $2 fast 650 7 $a Disasters $x Psychological aspects $2 fast 650 7 $a Emergency management $2 fast 650 7 $a Preparedness $2 fast 650 7 $a Resilience (Personality trait) $2 fast 650 7 $a Risk management $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ripley, Amanda. $t Unthinkable. $b 1st ed. $d New York : Crown Publishers, ©2008 $w (OCoLC)609260601 856 41 $3 Table of contents $u http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip081/2007040315.html 941 $a 1 $n 1 952 $l BWPD851 $d 20240109080545.0 $n 17 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3C6709E0AEE711EE82B97832393FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
