Overview

This is simple but brilliant observation, followed by reasonable applications; implausible to dismiss as coincidence. --Dr. Cort Stoskopf, Co-host, Popular Science Magazine/ Radio, April 20, 2013 Millions of people on three continents, from London to Caracas, from Liverpool to Los Angeles, have heard the evidence in Earthquake Prediction: Answers in Plain Sight - on television and radio, in newspapers and magazines. It's an important message for the immense populations along the US and Canadian west coasts and the Mississippi River Valley. While the prevailing view has placed seismic forecasting in the realm of near impossibility, a number of facts infer quite the opposite. Here is a persuasive inquiry into compelling clues and data that have been downplayed or ignored for almost two centuries, connecting hundreds of scientific studies with a stunning series of historic seismic events on the US West coast during the 20th century. Earthquake Prediction attempts to answer an ancient enigma by joining the interlocking parts of a scientific detective story that ranges from the steppes of Russia, to the jungles of Central America, and back to the San Andreas, Cascadia and New Madrid Fault Zones in the US and Canada. Remarkable evidence concerning what has been hypothesized about quake prediction--from as early as antiquity to the present--gives a thought-provoking overview of how this topic has remained in scientific limbo for so many decades, culminating in a list of hours-long higher probability windows for seismicity into the future. Here are the plain spoken reasons how and why it should be realized that it is plausible, with some degree of accuracy, to forecast the next ground-shaking catastrophe. This is the multi-billion dollar question. Does David Nabhan have the answer? -David Page, KSRO Morning News, San Francisco Bay Area, 2010
