This week, Dr. Philip Gooding (IOWC) is joined by Prof. James Warren (Murdoch) to discuss his monumental new book, Typhoons: Climate, Society, and History in the Philippines. Their conversation covers Prof. Warren's decades-long research project that led to this book, the impact of extreme storms on South East (and especially Philippine) history, and the shifting social dynamics that impact vulnerability to such events.
Prof. James Warren is Emeritus Professor of History at Murdoch University in Perth, Western Australia. Over his long and celebrated career, he has published 9 books and over 140 shorter pieces, held posts at universities on three continents, and made major contributions to research in South East Asian history, particularly environmental history.
