This is the story of New Zealand's turbulent tectonics, how earthquakes are measured and described, and how scientists are predicting future shakes across New Zealand.

On Shaking Ground has an accessible text with in-depth science. It explains why New Zealand is affected by earthquakes and how damage is caused. It also includes the long history of New Zealand's earthquakes with gripping photographs and personal accounts.
