“The book makes people aware of the pending emergencies and helps them join the constructive process of monitoring the history.”
“A book about catastrophes may seem pessimistic. But the authors are looking into the mechanisms of disasters and thus make them avoidable.”
“Which chapter to read first? — All are exciting.”
“This is an excellent guide to a scientific approach to catastrophes. It reports new original ideas presented with an incredible simplicity and accessible to general public.”
“Catastrophes similar to those treated in this book are familiar to physicists as phase transitions in nonliving materials. Krasnoyarsk scientists ventured to explain and predict phase change in biological and social processes using their experience of studying complex systems in physics.”
“The book offers a new interpretation of economic crises prompted by comparison with population outbreaks. This is not a mere analogy but rather a modeling method to be used in planning and running industrial enterprises and solving environmental problems.”
“This is a really nice book with many fascinating points.”
“… by the sheer number and diversity of applications in their book the authors show that their approach can be applied in relation to virtually every current policy issue … they supply a promising alternative; a paper, pencil, brain power and data driven approach.”
