Reseña del editor

Natural Hazards focuses on hazards as the interface between humanity and its needs for space and resources and the ongoing geologic processes of Earth. For an introductory course in geologic hazards for non-science majors. Together with easy-to-assign projects of Hazard City: Assignments in Applied Geology, the Prentice Hall Geoscience Animations Library, and the Prentice Hall's Environmental Geology Video Series, Natural Hazards provides the most comprehensive instructor and student learning package available.
