Its sweeping coverage of the Philippine landscape that includes the earliest contact with the West, the development of the trans-Pacific trade, incursions of the Catholic religion, integration into the Modern World system, and the extraordinary influences of centuries of typhoons has made for remarkable scholarship. By placing typhoons and associated hazards at the center of his historical focus, James Francis Warren presents a bold and innovative interpretation of Philippine pasts and futures, whereby the distinctions between natural hazards and natural disasters disappear. He gives a unique and long-term perspective on Philippine environmental and economic-social history through the lens of a recurrent extreme weather event extending all the way to the present, laying down the critical challenges that confront us in a globally warmer and more unpredictable future. A very important reference material for all those interested in multidisciplinary approaches to environmental sciences, social sciences, economic and sociopolitical history,  disaster risk management, and sustainable development, Typhoons is an astonishing, panoramic, persuasive study of inestimable value"-- Back cover.  aIn English. 0aTyphoonszPhilippinesxHistory. 0aTyphoonsxSocial aspectszPhilippines. 0aClimatic changeszPhilippines. 7aClimatic changes2fast 7aTyphoons2fast 0aPhilippinesxHistory. 7aPhilippines2fast1https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJgMFhdtFKxYyQvHvCFkDq 7aHistory2fast2 aAteneo de Manila University Press,epublisher.  a7bcbcccopycatd3eepcnf20gy-gencatlg  2ddccBKn0h551.552iW251tkFILm2024  00102ddc4070aCSPCbCSPCcFILd2026-04-15l0oFIL 551.552 W251t 2024p031592r2026-04-15 10:45:29t1-1w2026-04-15yBK  c32287d32287
