Summary

The two-volume International Handbook of Earthquake and Engineering Seismology is an encyclopedic overview of our present knowledge of earthquakes and engineering seismology. This state-of-the-art work was developed in collaboration with the International Association of Seismology and Physics of the Earth's Interior (IASPEI) and the International Association for Earthquake Engineering (IAEE). This comprehensive set is a resource library for structural engineers, geologists, geophysicists, seismologists, and other scientists and engineers with an interest in earthquakes.
