New York Mc Graw Hill 2006 xvii, 496p. :illus; 28 cm. Indeks : p.487-496 This book focuses on natural disaster: how the normal processes of the Earth concentrate their energies and deal heavy blows to humans their structure. It largely ignores the numerous case histories describing human actions ad resultant environmental responses; these topics are left to the excellent textbooks on environmental geology. Nor does this book address resource extraction, utilization, and disposal; these subjects are covered by fine textbooks on earth resources, minerals, energy, soils, ad waters. Natural Disasters
