Summary: Didn't Read it, but I have some opinions here
Comment: I actually created several small earthquakes with this book. I basically just whacked it against the table repeatedly, and stuff just kept jumping up every time I hit it. I was also responsible for the May 18, 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens. For that one, I used a Steven King book. I whacked it alot then, too.
I would have given this book six stars or more, but I could only give it five. I have a real problem with Amazon because of that. Some things merit a great deal more stars than you're able to give them.

Summary: Where is the real information?
Comment: Upon discovering there was actually a book on this subject, Tesla's famous earthquake machine; I was amazed. Tesla is my favorite inventor and I have been interested in building his device for years. But I was sadly disappointed when I read this book. The stories and information are repeated multiple times throughout the book, the instructions are only really a set of diagrams, and overall - this book was a complete letdown. Hopefully someone will someday redeem this poor account for Tesla's technology.

Summary: Some good info but misleading title.
Comment: The first part of the book covers Tesla's mechanical oscillator (principle of operation, etc.). Later, a series of blueprints are presented to detail the construction of a small oscillator. A knowledgable person with access to machining equipment should be able to construct one with the information provided. It will not, however, guide you through the proccess! It simply presents the "bare bones" info. After that, the book strays from its title. There is some rather strange talk about alternative religion and some Zen philosophy stuff. Then, were shown text and construction info for some other neat devices (heat pump, motors, etc.). Anyone who enjoys science or wants to build an "Earthquake Machine" will probably be satisfied with the content. Be prepared for some of the off topic discussion though.
