The Storm is a suspenseful, detailed account of Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath, written by Ivor van Heerden, Deputy Director of the Louisiana State University Hurricane Center, and co-author Mike Bryan. Recommended for its insights into the often contentious interactions of scientists and politicians, and for the abundance of evidence it offers to show that the loss of New Orleans, far from being the outcome of a natural disaster, was the result of human negligence. If you need an excuse to get a copy, it's now out in paperback.
