Abstract
Reviewing After the Storm: Black Intellectuals Explore the Meaning of Hurricane Katrina edited by David Dante Troutt. New York: New Press. 2006. Editor David Troutt has assembled a fascinating and wide-ranging collection of essays on the Katrina disaster. The contributing authors, primarily (though not exclusively) law professors, put the disaster into a larger context of American law and politics. While the authors' concerns and opinions are diverse, the interaction between human choice and the "natural" is a consistent theme running through the background of the book.
