The recent London bombings demonstrated several inefficiencies in the services called on to respond to such a disaster.

It was not acceptable that the emergency services could not provide adequately trained translators. ![][1] Eds Yael Danieli, Danny Brom, Joe Sills Haworth, $69.95, pp 932 ISBN 0 7890 2773 3 … [1]: /embed/graphic-1.gif
