Książka kompleksowo przedstawia proces pomiaru i oceny ryzyka powodziowego z wykorzystaniem probabilistycznych modeli teorii wartości ekstremalnych, wskazując jego ekonomiczne aspekty. Autorski dwuparametryczny probabilistyczny model ryzyka ze względu na dużą elastyczność umożliwia pomiar i ocenę ryzyka powodziowego na dowolnych obszarach. Możliwości zaproponowanego modelu ryzyka powodziowego są w książce przedstawione na przykładzie wyników oryginalnych badań przeprowadzonych dla siedmiu wybranych obszarów w dorzeczu środkowej Odry. Z tego powodu książka powinna zainteresować nie tylko czytelników z kręgów naukowych, ale także praktyków odpowiedzialnych za monitoring i ocenę zagrożenia powodziowego.
