Catastrophe and Systemic Change learning from the Grenfell Tower Fire and other disasters

Kernick, Gill. (Author).

Summary: Catastrophe and Systemic Change focuses on the Grenfell Tower fire and uses it as a detailed case study to examine the issue of how we (don't) learn from disasters and catastrophes. The mantra ""lessons will be learned"" is often just a fig leaf to cover inaction. The Covid-19 pandemic may well be the latest catastrophe that we really won't learn from.
