Fourteen issues of Mass Emergencies were published by Elsevier Scientific of Amsterdam between 1975 and 1979. The journal had been started by E. L. Quarantelli, Co-Director of the Disaster Research Center (then located at The Ohio State University), and Jiri Nehnevajsa, University Center for Urban Research (University of Pittsburgh). It was abruptly discontinued by Elsevier in 1979 after only two issues of Volume 4 had been published. This Web site makes available the contents of those fourteen issues (including one double issue). All files are PDF documents; Adobe Reader® required.
