Publisher's Summary

By the world-renowned seismologist, a
riveting history of natural disasters, their impact on our culture, and new ways of thinking about the ones to come

Earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanoes - they stem from the same forces that give our planet life.
Earthquakes give us natural springs; volcanoes produce fertile soil. It is only when these forces exceed our ability to
withstand them that they become disasters. Together they have shaped our cities and their architecture; elevated leaders
and toppled governments; influenced the way we think, feel, fight, unite, and pray. The history of natural disasters is
a history of ourselves.

In The Big Ones, leading seismologist Dr. Lucy Jones offers a bracing look at some of
the world's greatest natural disasters, whose reverberations we continue to feel today. At Pompeii, Jones explores
how a volcanic eruption in the first century AD challenged prevailing views of religion. She examines the California
floods of 1862 and the limits of human memory. And she probes more recent events - such as the Indian Ocean tsunami of
2004 and the American hurricanes of 2017 - to illustrate the potential for globalization to humanize and heal.

With population in hazardous regions growing and temperatures around the world rising, the impacts of natural
disasters are greater than ever before. The Big Ones is more than just a work of history or science; it is a call to
action. Natural hazards are inevitable; human catastrophes are not. With this energizing and exhaustively researched
book, Dr. Jones offers a look at our past, readying us to face down the Big Ones in our future.

Critic Reviews

"The Big Ones is a timely and
essential remembrance of how natural disasters have changed the world in dramatic ways. Lucy Jones is a first-rate
storyteller and fine researcher." (Douglas Brinkley, New York Times best-selling author of Rightful Heritage and
The Great Deluge)

“Nobody does a better job of explaining the science of disasters and the psychology
of humans than Lucy Jones. This book is priceless - both as a history and a prophecy.” (Amanda Ripley , New York
Times best-selling author of The Smartest Kids in the World and The Unthinkable)
