Review
In this exhaustive compilation of reports from about 78 earthquakes dating from 373 B.C. to 1979, Helmut Tributsch convincingly argues that there is an explanation for abnormal animal behavior before an earthquake. He also makes an impassioned plea against science's exclusive reliance on geophysical measurements for earthquake prediction.
--Barbara Bright, The New York Times Book ReviewSynopsis
Describes the unusual behavior animals exhibit in the hours before an earthquake, recounts atmospheric disturbances that seem to accompany quakes, and theorizes a possible connection between the two.
