In clear language and with a gripping narrative, the science and causes behind tsunamis are explained and the struggles around the world to cope with their aftermath are explored. Students are presented with stories of tsunamis, including the mammoth wave that struck Southeast Asia at the end of 2004. The discussion concludes with a look at humanitarian efforts to assist the people devastated by massive waves and details the scientific breakthroughs being made to update tsunamis warning systems around the world.
