Earthquakes (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9780836833782)

When the earth shifts and shatters, it's the result of an earthquake, which is the slipping and rubbing of huge tectonic plates in Earth's crust. Earthquakes are unpredictable and sometimes cause major damage. This Discovery Channel School Science title explores these seismic events and discusses how and why they occur, what a fault line is, and how our planet and landforms are continually changing as a result of them.
