Handbook on Resilience of socio-technical systems by Matthias Ruth and Stefan Goessling-Reisemann, 2019, Elgar: Cheltenham, UK. ISBN: 978-1-78643-936-9
The goal to improve the resilience of social systems - communities and their economies - is increasingly adopted by decision makers. This unique and comprehensive Handbook focuses on the interdependencies of these social systems and the technologies that support them. Special attention is given to the ways in which resilience is conceptualized by different disciplines, how resilience may be assessed, and how resilience strategies are implemented. Case illustrations are presented throughout to aid understanding. 1. Introduction to resilience of socio-technical systems -- 2. Towards a responsible resilience -- 3.

Abstract
The goal to improve the resilience of social systems - communities and their economies - is increasingly adopted by decision makers. This unique and comprehensive Handbook focuses on the interdependencies of these social systems and the technologies that support them. Special attention is given to the ways in which resilience is conceptualized by different disciplines, how resilience may be assessed, and how resilience strategies are implemented. Case illustrations are presented throughout to aid understanding. 1. Introduction to resilience of socio-technical systems -- 2. Towards a responsible resilience -- 3. The metaphorical processes in the history of the resilience notion and the rise of the ecosystem resilience theory -- 4. Essentials of resilience, revisited -- 5. Overcoming barriers to greater scientific understanding of critical infrastructure resilience -- 6. Resilient systems as a biomimetic guiding concept -- 7. From probabilistic risk analysis to resilience with network science : lessons from the literature and best practice -- 8. On the difference between risk management and resilience management for critical infrastructures -- 9. Resilience and risk governance : current discussion and future action -- 10.
