Christopher Scholz is an emeritus professor at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University where, over his fifty-year career, he has published over 300 papers on rock mechanics, fault mechanics, and the physics of earthquakes. He is a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union, and has been awarded the Murcheson Medal by The Geological Society of London, and the Reid Medal by the Seismology Society of America.
'When graduate students or postdocs ask what to read to improve their background in fault mechanics, Christopher H. Scholz's book has always been at the top of my list. This much awaited third edition has been thoroughly updated with the latest findings and insights, from as recent as 2018, and will continue to be an important resource for all geophysicists and geologists interested in active faults.' Roland Burgmann, University of California, Berkeley 'On first publication in 1990, The Mechanics of Earthquakes and Faulting immediately became 'The Book' on the topic. This major revision presents all the new findings from the last fifteen years, including episodic tremor and slip phenomena, the complexity of seismic rupture processes, the mechanics of megathrust faults and associated tsunamis, and lubrication of faults. With its state-of-the art content and rich bibliography of more than 2,000 references, this third edition is a must-read for everyone interested in earthquakes and faults - from undergraduate to the senior research level.'
