Volcanic activity is a phenomenon that both intrigues and puts fear in people worldwide. To understand the power of a volcano, a knowledge of how and what makes it tick is necessary. This book looks at the science of volcanoes, including eruptions, the material found inside one and the deadliest volcanoes on Earth.
