With resources available I was unable to determine where else this book has been referenced externally, however the themes and topics presented in this work appear in some of Fassin's other works.

Data comes in post form, with the titles and a small blurb and you can click for the whole article. There are tags for each post and they are sorted into folders/categories as mentioned previously.

This study sought to establish the prevelance and corelation of intimate partner violance victimization in the six months before and after Hurricane Katrina. The studies conducted showed the following results:

The percentage of women reporting psychological victimization increased from 33.6% to 45.2 %.

The percentage of men reporting psychological victimization increased from 36.7% to 43.1%

Reports of physical victimization increased from 4.2% to 8.3% for women, but were unchanged for men.

The studies also showed that various socioeconomic standings from before the storm had significant impacts on how intimate partner violance increased after the storm.

Several public officials were named in this article: Robert McDonnell, governor of Virginia, Jack Markell, governor of Delaware, Patty McQuillan, a member of North Carolina's emergency management agency, Chris Christie, governor of New Jersey, Mike Bloomberg, mayor of New York City, Andrew Cuomo, governor of New York, Tom Corbett, governor of Pennsylvania, Michael Nutter, mayor of Philadelphia, Leon Panetta, Defense Secretary, and President Obama.

The article used many letters written between people, which was an interesting thing see, as that was a good source of information for the fires back many years ago. In using a variety of disasters over many years to write the article, the author had to use different types of sources as society and technology developed.

I followed up on the history of PTSD, Mental illness in the Fire, Police, and EMS services both in disasters and in normal functions, and i looked at existing policies designed to minimize the trauma associated with disaster put in place by organizations such as FEMA and ARC.

The claims were supported by the laws and cases that have been caried out. The three parts of the law were explained and examples of situations were given.

To enhance it's eduacational value, more of the scientific links between the chemicals and environmental hazards present at camp lejeune could have been explored and not just stated as a fact.

1. The article analyzes the existing international nuclear regulatory groups and determines their capabilities and possible shortcomings in organizing such a group.

2. The article analyzed how nuclear emergency response has been handeled in the past and how goverments have prepared for future disasters.

3. The article outlined some requirements a nuclear emergency response agency would need to meet and some chalenges it would face.

It is difficult to determine where this document comes from. It deals with medicaid, so it is related to the government and healthcare.
