"The Urban Rehabilitation of Post-Disaster Scapes" is a book that examines the use of urbanscapes during the disaster process, focusing on the pre-disaster, disaster event, and post-disaster phases. The book includes 18 case studies of natural and man-made disasters from 1991 to 2022, covering various types of disasters such as floods, storms, earthquakes, wildfires, and sociological and technological disasters. The authors analyze the role of the urbanscape in each phase of the disaster process and discuss urban rehabilitation strategies. While the book provides a comprehensive discourse on disaster resilience and green growth approaches, it lacks case studies from the African continent. Overall, the book is recommended for researchers, students, and professionals in academia, disaster management, urban planning, and architecture. [Extracted from the article]
