Using an integrative approach, the authors blend their own work on indigenous adjustments to climatic hazards in Bangladesh with an analysis of the role of modern engineering intervention and disaster management policies in alleviating these hazards. There is also an emphasis on the environment and people of coastal Bangladesh who are at risk of inundation due to global warming-induced sea level rise. Thus, in addition to analyzing main climatic disasters at some length--tropical cyclones (hurricanes), floods, droughts, and sea level rise--key topics of human dimensions of climate change include climate change victims, climate refugees, climate justice, public policies on climate change, and a sample of adaptation measures for living with the rising sea levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarun Rashid is emeritus professor at the department of geography and earth science, University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBimal Kanti Paul is a professor of geography at Kansas State University, Manhattan, Kansas.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 252\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 26, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47533899088121,"sku":"9780739183533","price":198.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/7ZSmXDWwhH9780739183533.webp?v=1773879664","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/climate-change-in-bangladesh-confronting-impending-disasters-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
