Volcanoes, Earthquakes and Tsunamis / David A. Rothery London : Thomson, 2007 viii, 296p. : : illus, ; 20cm. Indeks : p.290 - 296 In this book,he trues to help you understand the nature, causes and consequences of these natural phenomena. He begins by discussing the underlying mechanism whereby the Earth's surface is in motion and that causes both volcanoes and earthquakes, revealing why volcanoes and earthquakes tend to be centrated into specific parts of the globe. He then look at how and why volcanoes erupt and strategies to predict eruptions and to minimize the associated risk. Many famous cities lie beside volcanoes that have erupted in the past thousand or even the past hundred years, and that are certain to erupt again. For example, Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand, is built among a group of low-lying volcanoes who most recent eruption was only eight hundred years ago.
