Descrizione

Fine English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In English. 240 p., b/w ills. The seismicity of Turkey and adjacent areas. A historical review, 1500-1800. This is a reference book for historians, earth scientists and others concerned with the seismic hazard of the area within the present borders of Turkey. The core of the book is a descriptive catalogue of every earthquake of any importance of which there is any record, between 1500 and 1799; full bibliographical references are included for each entry. The catalogue is prefaced by detailed comments on previous attempts to compile earthquake catalogues for the area up to the present, and by discussion of the primary source material utilised, in both Middle Eastern and occidental languages. The book contains maps of the regions affected by the larger earthquakes, and a general table of the events associated with the little-known seismic history of a fast-developing area of the Eastern Mediterranean. The book will also be of interest to engineers and, in particular, to those concerned with the mitigation of natural hazards.
