Focusing on the Lapindo mudflow, which began in 2006 due to gas exploration and remains ongoing, the book examines how disasters are represented across various mediums, including scientific reports and literature. It delves into the implications of these portrayals on public perception and response to environmental crises, highlighting the complexities of understanding such significant events in Indonesia's history. Through this case study, it sheds light on the interplay between culture, science, and disaster response.
