Features: Modern, developed news media helped us on the other side of the Pacific Ocean to witness this human tragedy in a timely manner. As a member of the media, while being shocked by the scale of the tragedy and its immense destructive force, we began planning and organizing the book. Unlike news publications, book publishing does not require immediate reactions to. Therefore, we asked the authors to focus on delving deeper into the event and analyzing its causes in their writing. This approach makes the book more aligned with readers' expectations, avoiding the quick loss of freshness and vitality often seen in general news. Of course, due to the relatively long time span between writing, editing, and publishing, this book cannot be updated as frequently as newspapers or radio broadcasts to include the latest developments. Although we would like to ensure that readers have as comprehensive an understanding as possible. Additionally, it should be noted that the time used in this book, unless otherwise specified, is based on Eastern Standard Time in the United States, which is 12 hours behind Beijing Time.
