Description

This is the first book to really make sense of the dizzying array of information that has emerged in recent decades about earthquakes. Susan Hough, a research seismologist in one of North America's most active earthquake zones and an expert at communicating this complex science to the public, separates fact from fiction in clear, accessible prose. Because earthquake science is so new, it has rarely been presented outside of technical journals. Earthshaking Science changes all this.

Author Biography:

Susan Elizabeth Hough is a seismologist with the United States Geological Survey in Pasadena, California, and has published more than forty articles in journals such as "Nature, Science, Natural History", and the "Journal of Geophysical Research". She has also written occasional editorials on earthquakes for the "Los Angeles Times".
