DESCRIPTION:
Praise for David Nabhan and his theory:“Nabhan’s theory deserves to be taken note of.” Dr. Kate Hutton, chief seismologist, California Institute of Technology“This is simple but brilliant observation, followed by reasonable applications; impossible to dismiss as coincidence.” Dr. Does David Nabhan have the answer?” David Page, KSRO, San Francisco Bay Area. Nabhan’s simply asking us to look at the data, the way science used to be done. Here’s the evidence, you look at it and figure out what it means.” Dave Bowman, KFIV, Modesto“David Nabhan is no stranger to controversy for his belief that we can predict earthquakes to
He is the editor of the book series History and Philosophy of Science: Heresy, Crossroads, and Intersections. . David Nabhan is the author of four books on earthquakes, peer-reviewed articles regarding seismic forecasting, and dozens of newspaper and magazine op-eds and commentaries concerning this topic. He has been featured in media across the world more than three hundre
Earthquake Prediction makes the case, with an important message for the tens of millions of Americans on the US West Coast, the Mississippi River Valley, and other seismically active zones. But recent scientific developments across the globe suggest that seismic forecasting is on the horizon.Earthquake Prediction: Dawn of the New Seismology examines the latest scientific clues in hopes of discovering seismic precursors which may shed light on real earthquake prediction in the future. The earth science establishment in the US says that earthquake prediction still lies outside the realm of possibility. It is destined to be nothing less than an epoch-changing work, addressing this ancient enigma by joining the parts of a scientific detective story that ranges from the steppes of Russia to the coast of Chile, bringing to light astounding breakthroughs by researchers in Italy, India and elsewhere. Each year the world faces thousands of earthquakes of magnitude 5.0 or greater, resulting in devastating property destruction and trag
