Recensioner i media

"The authors help the reader to rethink flood 'problems' and 'opportunities' by posing questions that need to be answered for informed floodplain management decision-making in any context. With its analytic approach and numerous examples, this book will serve admirably as a text for anyone whose work involves floodplains."---Jon Kusler, educator, attorney, author of Our National Wetlands Heritage
