Historical Seismicity and Tectonics: The Case of the Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East Modern scientific investigations of earthquakes began in the 1880s, and the International Association of Seismology was organized in 1901 to promote collaboration of scientists and engineers in studying earthquakes. The International Handbook of Earthquake and Engineering Seismology, under the auspices of the International Association of Seismology and Physics of the Earth's Interior (IASPEI), was prepared by leading experts under a distinguished international advisory board and team of editors. The content is organized into 56 chapters and includes over 430 figures, 24 of which areInternational geophysics series ;v. 81A.Earthquake & engineering seismologyEarthquake and engineering seismologySeismologyEarthquake engineeringSeismology.Earthquake engineering.551.22Lee William Hung Kan1940-48729International Association of Seismology and Physics of the Earth's Interior.Committee on Education.International Association for Earthquake Engineering.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817545903321International handbook of earthquake and engineering seismology4043621UNINA
