Preface

Floods are the rage of nature brought about by the combination of its wrath and human negligence. We will try to explain the techniques and tips for flood survival, in this book.

We start off by explaining the different kinds of floods, what causes them, and how human actions have increased the level of flood intensity over time. Awareness is a strong weapon and one of the most useful ones in combating any natural calamity. We explain the associated risks with your various locations and give you advice in coping with different scenarios.

Section three leads you through every tool necessary for battling and defending these scenarios. Coping with disaster without first aid and helping materials is a catastrophic situation. Lastly, we guide you further in matters of what to do after a flood and finish off with the first aid techniques for the most common injuries that you might have the misfortune to face.
