“The book The Urban Rehabilitation of Post-Disaster Scapes provides a comprehensive scientific contribution, by presenting various points of view to bring out the latest research, approaches and perspectives for disaster risk reduction along with highlighting the outcomes of green growth approaches and including the science– technology–research–policy–practice interface, from both developed and developing parts. Furthermore, I believe that the book can make an important scientific contribution to future urban planning.” (Muhammad Rizal Pahleviannur, Urban Studies, Vol. 61 (7), 2024) “The structure of the book is organised in the form of individual chapters whereby each chapter includes the abstract, key words and references which enables non-linear reading approach too. … The special contribution of this book is found in the form of how figures and tables have been developed. Each case study is graphically analysed through a collage with overlapped three photos in a diagrammatic way ... . Methodologically, the book targets the academic audience and disaster experts.” (Nerma Omićević and Bojana Bojanić Obad Šćitaroci, PROSTOR - A Scholarly Journal of Architecture and Urban Planning, Vol. 31 (02), 2023)
