This§book examines the dangers and the patterns of adaptation that emerge through§exposure to risk on a daily basis. By addressing the influence of environmental factors in Indian Ocean§World history, the collection reaches across the boundaries of the natural and§social sciences, presenting case-studies that deal with a diverse range of§natural hazards - fire in Madagascar, drought in India, cyclones and typhoons in§Oman, Australia and the Philippines, climatic variability, storms and flood in§Vietnam and the Philippines, and volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and tsunamis§in Indonesia. These chapters, written by leading international historians,§respond to a growing need to understand the ways in which natural hazards shape§social, economic and political development of the Indian Ocean World, a region§of the globe that is highly susceptible to the impacts of seismic activity,§extreme weather, and climate change. §§
