Climate Change and Flood Risk Management discusses and problematises the integration of adaptation to climate change in flood risk management.

The book explores adaptation to climate change in relation to flood risk events in advanced industrial states. It provides examples of how flood risk management, disaster and emergency management, and adaptation to climate change may intersect in a number of European and Canadian cases.
