Barrier islands, Flood plains, Earthquake faults: sometimes the environment poses threats to our well being, yet many of us continue to choose to live in risky or dangerous places. And on top of the knowns are the other, more hidden hazards related to environmental contamination that pose equally serious threats to our health and well being. But where are these places and what types of hazards are found there? "American Hazardscapes" examines the risks associated with living and owning property in diverse regions across the United States, offering dual perspectives: that of the geographer and that of the social science hazards researcher.
