Annals of natural disasters have always caused common interest.
Scientists and specialists of various domains, teachers, students,
post-graduates, journalists .. and merely inquisitive can find
useful and didactic information in such annals~ Sad experience of
the natural disasters endured gives very important material for
humanity. It allows us not only to understand better the phenomenon
itself, but also to prepare ourselves for future cataclysms, which
our "Mother-Nature" is so rich in. The book by Sergey Soloviev and
a group of his collaborators represents a detailed description of
tsunami waves and accompanying phenomena in the Mediterranean Sea
over a period of approximately four thousand years. Sergey
Soloviev, the founder and recognised leader of the Russian
scientific school of tsunami researchers, was unable to see the
publication of this book, passing away on March 9, 1994. However,
his ample experience in investigation and systematisation of
tsunami waves for the Pacific area [Soloviev and Go, 1974, 1975;
Soloviev, Go and Kim, 1986] has been widely used in compiling this
book. The Mediterranean coasts are the cradle of civilisation.
Written accounts of past disasters in this region of the Earth are
rather numerous and highly reliable. Therefore the results of the
tsunami study in the Mediterranean Sea are of specific value both
for the scientific community and for humanity at large.
