Synopsis

This open access book gathers different case studies of resilience and coping strategies in hunter-gatherer societies who were confronted with natural hazards. Joined in this book, authors display a range of strategies how people could face natural hazards and climate change, how they manage stress at a group or personal level, and how they transmit their knowledge about dreadful events and successful responses to later generations. Consequently, this book is primarily for a scientific audience focused on hunter-gatherers but will also provide insights for those interested in human responses to crisis and change.
