Abstract

Looks at the earthquakes of 17 August and 12 November in Turkey and Greece respectively. Examines the differences in destructiveness and loss of life and the factors contributing to these. Concludes that it is important to learn from experience in these incidences so that lessons can be learned from the full cycle of disaster.
