Surviving the 2011 Japanese Earthquake and Tsunami
Omtale
In March 2011, a massive earthquake hit Japan and triggered a powerful tsunami. Claiming more than 15,000 lives, destroying thousands of homes, and wiping out infrastructure, the event was one of the worst natural disasters in Japan's history. Yet even after damage to the Fukushima power plant resulted in one of the most devastating nuclear accidents--one that continues to affect surrounding areas years after the incident--the Japanese people and government showed resilience. This volume examines the events and the national and environmental impact of this tragedy as well as the steps that have been taken to rebuild lives and homes.
