About this title

Synopsis

"I wrote this book in the hope that readers will be able to save their own lives as well as those of the ones they love when an earthquake next strikes, so that the tragedy of March 11, 2011 would never be repeated." -- Satoko Oki. What our chatty planet teaches us: Would you be surprised to hear that there are scientists who listen to the Earth? Yes, the Earth does talk in many different voices -- the voice of the air, the voice of the sea, the voice of volcanoes, and the voice of the Earth. Seismologists listen to the voice of the Earth. They use high performance seismometers that do not miss the slightest muttering by the Earth that human ears cannot hear. That way, they can learn about what causes earthquakes and even what it is like inside the planet.
