As the latter is often fraught with delays and even abandonment—one cause being ineffective interactions between construction and local people—PERRP used anthropological and participatory approaches. Along with strong construction management, such approaches led to the rebuilding being completed on time. As disasters are increasing in number and intensity, so too will be the need for reconstruction, for which PERRP has lessons to offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“I find the book to be truly remarkable and absolutely stand-alone in what it describes and what it does. As opposed to the usual disheartening tale of the failure of a disaster reconstruction (or development) project, detailed here is a totally successful post-disaster reconstruction achievement due to the express involvement throughout of the anthropological perspective and community participation.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Susanna Hoffman\u003c\/strong\u003e, Chair of The Risk and Disaster Commission of the International Union of Anthropological and Ethnographic Sciences (IUAES)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \tList of Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e \tAnecdotes and Ethnographies\u003cbr\u003e \tPreface.
