About this book

The Earth in Turmoil: Earthquakes, Volcanoes, and Their Impact on Humankind by Sieh, Kerry. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780716736516.

The Earth in Turmoil is the account of what we now know about volcanoes and earthquakes. Exploring natural hazards in the U.S. region by region, it combines lively accounts of past disasters with expert predictions for the future, including a final chapter on how people can mitigate the damaging effects of earthquakes and volcanoes through individual and collective action. A blend of human interest and authoritative science, The Earth in Turmoil is a view into the most powerful forces nature can unleash.
