Appendix Physical and Mental Trauma – What Does a Fire Victim Go through Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction For millenniums, man has always been subject to natural calamities and disasters, like earthquakes, cyclones, floods and other catastrophes and upheavals, which have caused a lot of damage to lives and property. Out of these disasters, fire is one catastrophe, which has had a lasting effect on the economy and social aspect of an affected area, down the centuries. Fire disasters can be local, or they can be national. The great fire of 1666, destroyed a major part of London. Many ancient civilizations also talk about fires which destroyed cities, towns, and even countries. Most of them were man-made, especially the aftermath of war, or civil disturbances. Others came in the wake of natural disasters like earthquakes, typhoons and tsunamis. “A burnt child dreads the fire” is an age old idiom. Down the ages, human beings taught their children, that though fire was a necessary part and parcel of their day to day fabric, it was the thing to be created with care. While it provided light and warmth, it could also provide death and instruction, when it was not kept under control. This is the reason why fire along with other natural agencies was worshiped as a god, in all the ancient civilizations all over the world. It had to be fed sacrifices in ancient times, and the God of fire placated to leave human beings alone, and not visit his wrath upon them, their families and their properties. An ancient Roman prayer went something like this to the gods – Oh, Almighty powerful Gods on my head the power of sword and fire. But protect thou my wife and children. Protect thou my lands. As sword and fire were two of the dreaded shadows under which the ancient lived, one can see how much the power of the fire was feared. No wonder people have instinctively down the centuries been apprehensive of this major force of nature, which brings in its wake disaster, death, and instruction, wherever it goes.

Thermal harm is one of the most traumatizing assaults on man and his environment. Whether suffered by living beings as burn injury, or sustained by societal structures as fire damage, the resulting physical pain and material loss can be extremely distressing both to the person and to society. The health professions and in particular burn specialists have been continually developing effective means of combating burn disease and promoting rehabili tation of the victims, especially in mass casualty situations. In parallel, various levels of the community have been mobilizing fire prevention and fire-fighting mechanisms that protect society and the environment from the ever-increasing hazards of fire disasters. It is therefore surprising that, while aiming at the same objective, the two sectors have rarely come together; doctor has rarely worked with fire chief. Yet both disciplines have so much to learn from and contribute to each other's efforts. The Mediterranean Burns Club is a professional organization that brings together persons concerned with burn therapy and fire safety in all forms, especially in the countries of the Mediterranean basin. It is honoured to have been identified by the United Nations as a premier scientific body in its field within the programme of the International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction. It is therefore natural that it should have initiated an international gathering of specialists engaged in burns as a surgical, clinical problem, and of counterparts dealing with fires as a societal, disaster management problem.

“A compelling blend of science, history and storytelling. Barbara Ravage has fashioned an enlightening, invaluable book.” —Stewart O'Nan, author of The Circus Fire: A True Story of an American TragedyThough each of us is just a spark away from being a burn victim, the public knows little and understands less about the world that patients inhabit. Pulling the curtains back on this private and sterile environment, Burn Unit is a riveting account of the frontline efforts—both modern-day and historical—to save lives devastated by fire. With unflinching urgency, Barbara Ravage follows an extraordinary team of healers at Massachusetts General Hospital, the cradle of modern burn treatment and the site of one of the best burn units in the world. From Boston's Cocoanut Grove fire of 1942 to the treatment of the victims of the Rhode Island nightclub fire in early 2003, we watch everyday heroes do their incredible but punishing work against the backdrop of history. Both a moving human drama and an engrossing scientific exploration of this little-known field of medicine, Burn Unit is an unforgettably powerful read.

How destructive or beneficial are forest fires to wildlife? Should we be trying to reduce or increase the amount of fire in forests? How are forest fires controlled, and why does this sometimes fail? What effect will climate change have? These and many other questions are answered in this richly illustrated book, written in non-technical language. The journey starts in the long geological history of fire leading up to our present love-hate relationship with it. Exploring the physics of how a single flame burns, the journey continues through how whole forests burn and the anatomy of firestorms. The positive and negative ecological effects of fires are explored, from plants and wildlife to whole landscapes. The journey ends with how fires are controlled, and a look to the future. This book will be of interest to ecologists, biogeographers and anyone with an interest in forest fires and the role they play.
