What is a Disaster? Addresses the most basic question in the field: that of defining the phenomenon of study. For theoretical advancement, it is important that researchers begin to develop a consensus about the meaning of disasters and related phenomena. With the rise in international terrorism, one must clarify whether these events are disasters and if so, what kind of disasters. Similarly, in addition to natural disasters, do we include riots, explosions, nuclear power plant accidents, damn collapses, and land subsidence under the same conceptual umbrella? What practical and theoretical differences does it make if the same label is used or not used for such different situations? What is a Disaster? Brings together twelve social scientists representing eight disciplines and seven countries to share their definition and vision of disasters. In the process, a wide range of views are expressed and issues raised regarding the relationship of academic versus practical definitions, the impact of grouping types of disasters in different ways, and the epistemologies on which theoretical growth should rest. The forum provided involves the presentation of each author's views, followed by a discussant's critique, and closed with a response from the author. The editor's close the volume with discussions of the theoretical framework of disaster research and an agenda for disaster research in the twenty-first century.Binding Type: Paperback

Smooth and quiet wipe
Size: Combo Pack (26" & 20"), Style: Top Lock Narrow, Size: Combo Pack (26" & 20"), Style: Top Lock Narrow
Swapped these onto my car and they work great.
Installation was quick and easy, took just a couple minutes. The wipe is smooth and quiet with no streaks, even in heavier rain.
Feels like a solid upgrade compared to cheaper blades I’ve used before.
So far very satisfied.

Great fit...but 1" shorter
Size: Combo Pack (26" & 20"), Style: Top Lock Narrow
Fit and quality is great. However the shortblade needs to be 21". OEM is26" and 21". Bosch sets 26 and 20". I may have missed, but I didnt t see anyone mentioning this issue.
Other than that is perfect fit.

Terrific Bosch blades
Size: Combo Pack (26" & 20"), Style: Top Lock Narrow, Size: Combo Pack (26" & 20"), Style: Top Lock Narrow
These German made wiper blades do their job so well that my wife was impressed. Once you get the hang of it they are one minute to replace. Recommend placing a cloth under the blade to avoid any windshield scratches if the metal wiper assembly accidentally falls down on the glass. Nice to see the Bosch name on the wiper blades.

Best replacement option for 2025 Tesla Model Y Performance
Size: Combo Pack (26" & 20"), Style: Top Lock Narrow, Size: Combo Pack (26" & 20"), Style: Top Lock Narrow
Outstanding replacement option for 2025 Tesla Model Y Performance (Pre-Juniper), so much smoother than the OEM wipers. Very easy to replace. They seem very durable after testing on all wiper settings. Definitely keep the windshield clearer without streaks. Seem to also have more stability on mounting compared to OEM option. 15/10 replacement for the cost, can’t beat it.
