It has information on what to do in almost any emergency, including landslides and tsunamis. Not in detail, but we can't prepare for them all in detail anyhow, and it includes resources for more information on any areas that you need. It has quizzes in the book to see if you're grasping and retaining things. Homeland Security and FEMA are in charge of all this. It has a family communications plan section, disaster supply checklists (including a reminder to keep certain items in waterproof containers). If nothing else, the price is right! <a href="http://citizencorps.gov/" target="_blank">http://citizencorps.gov/</a> The name Citizen Corps gives me the heeby jeebies, but I got a free 200 pg book ("Are You Read?: An In-Depth Guide to Citizen Preparedness") from the local county that they put out.
