      abstract = {This book focuses on land and disaster governance in Asian  countries. The Asian region has become increasingly  vulnerable to natural disasters, including floods,  cyclones, storms, earthquakes, drought, typhoons and  tsunamis. Further, as a result of unsustainable changes  being made in patterns of land use, catchment and coastal  zones, increasing population density, migration patterns,  and the spread of consumer culture across countries, the  impact of natural disasters has increased manifold. The  book addresses two major concerns in this field. Firstly,  it discusses topics intended to raise awareness among all  stakeholders of the critical aspects of disaster management  in the context of Asia. Secondly, it calls upon  policymakers, researchers, academics, practitioners,  private enterprises and civil society organizations, as  well as all those who have been, are and will be affected  by natural disasters to search for innovative and novel  approaches to reducing risk and managing disasters.},
