Inhoud:

Recounts that improvements in earthquake recording capability in the 1960s and 1970s set the stage for a period of rapid development in earthquake science. Although some enigmas have remained, much has been learned on issues such as earthquake prediction, seismic hazard assessment, and ground motion prediction. This book addresses those issues.
