Zemetrasenie v Lisabone v roku 1755. Cunami v južnej Ázii v roku
2004. Zemetrasenie v San Francisku v roku 1906. Hurikán Katrina v
roku 2005. Všetky tieto prírodné katastrofy nespôsobili iba veľké
škody a straty na životoch, ale aj zmenili históriu a naše
premýšľanie. Kniha nórskeho geológa prináša príklady z dvoch
tisícročí. Sú to nielen dejiny prírodných katastrof, ale aj dejiny
ľudských reakcií na ne a schopnosti prispôsobiť sa extrémnym
udalostiam. Henrik Svensen rozpráva príbehy mnohých očitých
svedkov. Hoci sú spomínané katastrofy prírodným fenoménom, reakcie
ich obetí bývajú často veľmi podobné, neraz v nich vidia varovanie
bohov. Svensen predstavuje vedecký prístup ku konkrétnym udalostiam
a podčiarkuje význam toho, aby sme boli na prírodné katastrofy
dobre pripravení, pretože ich počet a sila bude vďaka klimatickým
zmenám iba narastať. Henrik Svensen(1970) je nórsky geológ,
pôsobí na univerzite v Oslo, zaoberá sa výskumom dramatických
udalostí v histórii Zeme. Práve im venoval svoju prvú knihu o
dejinách prírodných katastrof v priebehu viac než dvoch tisícročí s
názvom Koniec je blízko. Jeho druhá knihaNa vrcholoch, ktorá
vyšla aj v slovenčine,získala nórsku cenu pre najlepšiu knihu
o horách. Venoval sa v nej svetovým veľhorám nielen z pohľadu
geológie, ale aj histórie či filozofie.
