McIntyre and Hancock (homeland security and defense, The National Graduate School for Quality Management) bring together a group of US business executives, attorneys, and academics in security and risk management, technology, public health, and political science to detail how disasters can impact businesses. In 16 chapters, they address the need for businesses and government to work together to prevent, protect against, and mitigate the damage of disasters. They discuss the direct and indirect impacts of terrorist attacks on the economy, whether terrorism is a short-term phenomenon, the relationship between business continuity and enterprise value and the effects of catastrophes on companies, the legal liabilities for businesses, and the impact of threats and catastrophes on corporate governance. 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.
