The book offers a comprehensive physical theory of the earthquakes. The presentation level is rather mathematical, but thorough physical explanations are provided everywhere. We do not know where and when and how great an earthquake occurs. The seismic events have a statistical character. Statistical Seismology is discussed extensively in this book, centered on the famous Gutenberg-Richter, Omori and Bath statistical laws. The earthquakes may be correlated, foreshocks may herald a main shock, aftershocks may follow a main shock. The pattern of such correlations, their extension in time and...

This book presents 10 specific actions to be undertaken in order to provide results of practical relevance in seismology. From the statistical analysis of earthquakes, we can estimate the earthquake mean recurrence time and the probability of occurrence of the next earthquake. In addition, through statistical analysis, we can identify correlated foreshocks and estimate the occurrence time of the main shock. As the book shows, the general state of seismicity of a given seismic region can be assessed by statistical means, in particular the earthquake entropy. From measurements of the seismic...
