Richter's Scale: Measure of an Earthquake, Measure of a Man
Susan Elizabeth Hough
By developing the scale that bears his name, Charles Richter not only invented the concept of magnitude as a measure of earthquake size, he turned himself into a household word. This work takes the reader into Richter's life story, setting it in the context of his family and interpersonal attachments, and the history of seismology.
