Violent Earth
by Robert Dinwiddie
An extremely detailed yet concisely written account of the 'violent Earth.' Covers a wide range of material beginning with the theories behind volcanic activity - continental drift, plate tectonics - before developing a rich plethora of information about Earth's most potent natural hazards, earthquakes and volcanoes. The book is accompanied by vivid and spectacular images carefully compiled and expanded to demonstrate intricate details of, for example selenium mine explorations. The information is presented in clear format with understandable language, but still includes the key technical terms that can make you sound like an expert after reading!
