Doom by Niall Ferguson
The Politics of Catastrophe
A brisk, provocative analysis of catastrophic events that argues disasters are shaped less by fate than by politics, institutions and human error; using historical case studies from pandemics to financial crises, the book traces recurring patterns of denial, bad incentives, and poor planning in modern societies and offers lessons and reforms to improve preparedness, accountability and resilience in an increasingly interconnected world.
