Content: The book 'A Roadmap for the Comprehensive Assessment of Natech Risk' by Alessio Misuri and Valerio Cozzani explores the complex interactions between natural hazards and technological systems, specifically focusing on Natech (Natural Hazard Triggering Technological Accidents) events. It provides a detailed analysis of how natural disasters such as earthquakes, storms, and floods can lead to severe technological accidents involving the release of hazardous substances. The authors discuss methodologies for assessing Natech risks, the performance of safety barriers, and strategies for managing these risks within the context of climate change. This comprehensive guide is intended for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers involved in risk management and disaster preparedness, offering insights into the prevention and control of accidents triggered by natural events.
