    In the late 19th century, Charles Darwin was sure that humans and animals showed emotion through remarkably similar behaviors, noting, "The Indian elephant is said sometimes to weep." For over 100 years, animal lovers have known that their dogs, cats, and other pets have complex emotional lives. When Elephants Weep is the first book since Darwin's to thoroughly and effectively explore the full range of emotions throughout the animal kingdom. Scholar and psychoanalyst Masson, with the help of Susan McCarthy, presents scientific evidence, fascinating anecdotes, and illuminating insights that offer powerful proof of the existence of animal emotion. When Elephants Weep draws upon the illuminating experiences of animal trainers and pet owners to create riveting and revolutionary stories that will permanently change and enrich the way we look at animals.

  • Seismology - Earthquakes: Understanding and Predicting Seismic Events - cover

    Seismology - Earthquakes:...

    Seismology is the scientific study of earthquakes and the propagation of seismic waves through the Earth. It plays a crucial role in understanding the planet’s internal structure, predicting seismic hazards, and developing mitigation strategies. The field has evolved over centuries, combining geological observations with advanced instrumentation to analyze the forces that shape the Earth's surface. 
    The Earth's internal structure consists of the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. These layers play a fundamental role in the behavior of seismic waves. The crust, the outermost layer, is broken into tectonic plates that move slowly over the more fluid mantle beneath. This movement generates stress along fault lines, eventually leading to earthquakes. The mantle, composed of semi-solid rock, allows for convection currents that drive plate tectonics. The outer core, a molten iron layer, generates Earth's magnetic field, while the solid inner core remains a mystery due to its extreme conditions. 
    Seismic waves are the energy waves generated by earthquakes and other seismic events. They are classified into body waves and surface waves. Body waves, which travel through the Earth’s interior, include primary (P) waves and secondary (S) waves. P-waves are the fastest and travel through both solids and liquids, while S-waves move slower and can only propagate through solids. Surface waves, which travel along the Earth's crust, are responsible for most of the destruction during an earthquake.
