Reviews

'Post-Disaster Reconstruction : Lessons from Aceh is a landmark book in drawing together different experiences and insights of the post-conflict, post-tsunami reconstruction efforts in Aceh. It is the most comprehensive account of the voices and forces at work in the rebuilding of Aceh and shows in rich detail the ways in which the complexities and challenges have been addressed.' Irwandi Yusuf, Governor of Aceh (Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam) Indonesia 'This book offers the most wide-ranging and penetrating analysis of the post-tsunami reconstruction in Aceh and it is the best book I have read about post-disaster reconstruction in general. In considering the lessons learned during the reconstruction process, it effectively blends empirical observation and the voices of disaster survivors. This book should be read not only by anyone who is involved in post-disaster reconstruction but also by victims of disaster and others who wish to understand the experience of survivors.' Professor Fuad Abdul Hamied, Deputy Minister for Education, Religion and Civil Service, Coordinating Ministry for People's Welfare, Indonesia
