Each title focuses on three particular case studies where man-made disasters have been both spectacular and influential and reconsturcts the minute-by-minute unfolding of the disasters as they happended. Evidence is presented to illustrate how disasters can stem from a single apparently insignificant event and soon spiral out of control and how future disasters can be prevented by the lessons we have learnt from the past.
