Arthur Bradley

    Fort de son expérience d'ingénieur de la NASA, Arthur T. Bradley se concentre sur la préparation pratique des familles aux catastrophes. Les événements du 11 septembre l'ont sorti de sa complaisance, soulignant la fragilité de la sécurité et la nécessité d'une préparation proactive. Après avoir examiné la littérature existante, il a identifié un manque d'approche globale et bien raisonnée pour la préparation pratique. Appliquant ses compétences analytiques, il a fait des recherches rigoureuses sur le sujet, distinguant les faits du folklore. Il en a résulté la création d'un manuel offrant des conseils bien documentés, basés sur une applicabilité dans le monde réel pour les familles ordinaires.
