Book Reviews of Tsunami: The Underrated Hazard

Book Review: Interesting, but too heavy for general consumption
Summary: 2 Stars

Having watched numerous "Nature Kicks Butt" documentaries and been fascinated by the Tsunami Big Waves, I searched the site for a book to learn and read more. This book is collecting dust on my book shelf. I'm guessing Joe Public aren't the intended audience since its very heavy on the mechanics, and mathmatical equations. If you're looking for a documentary of the top 10 wave disasters embelished with graphic details of the impact on people and places.... this ain't it. If you want to understand the hows and whys... this might be up your alley.
