About this title

Synopsis

Unlocking the mystery of earthquakes through observation, reason, and faith.

A rigorous, historic inquiry into what causes earthquakes and what these prodigious events mean for nature and humanity. This edition surveys calm weather, felt tremors at sea, and the wide variation in quake magnitudes, while weighing natural explanations against divine purpose.

Drawing on direct observations, contemporary reports, and religious reflection, the work challenges common theories and argues for a cause rooted in the deeper workings of the earth and heavens. It blends early science with moral reflection, offering a clear, measured path for readers curious about how natural phenomena intersect with belief.

Examines the typical conditions and patterns of earthquakes, including when and where they occur and how they move.
Considers why some quakes are violent in some places but mild in others, and how this relates to human perception.
Weighs the old theories of subterranean fires against the possibility of a more universal, occult influence.
Links geological events to biblical and classical writings, inviting reflection on purpose and providence.

Ideal for readers interested in the history of science, natural philosophy, and the interplay between science and theology.
