In 16 chapters, they address the need for businesses and government to work together to prevent, protect against, and mitigate the damage of disasters.

The second section addresses terrorist threats to the US and its businesses, how to assure continuity of operations, the impact of disease and pandemics on business continuity, teleworking in the face of a pandemic, and how terrorism and homeland security can create opportunities for looking at potential catastrophes in a new way, followed by stories of disasters from business leaders affected by 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina.
