About this book

Al examinar las páginas de este libro, que aborda una temática que sin duda representa un ícono de la historia valdiviana y del sur de Chile, nos encontramos con un relato sencillo, directo y tremendamente didáctico de lo que fue este hecho que marcó un antes y un después en la historia de los fenómenos naturales a nivel nacional y mundial. En efecto, a nivel local hablar del Terremoto de 1960 —el más grande registrado, cuya magnitud se aproxima al límite superior de lo que el planeta probablemente jamás pueda generar en un solo evento— es casi sinónimo de Valdivia, independiente de la extensa área geográfica que fue afectada. El autor trasluce una evidente pasión al analizar el tema, una pasión que se acompaña junto a un compromiso que van disimulados consciente o inconscientemente a través de un lenguaje y minuciosidad científica al alcance y comprensión de cualquier lector. También expone sugerentes conclusiones, evidenciando la deficiente preparación que ante este tipo de eventos aún existe en nuestro país, apuntando que 'una cultura sísmica desarrollada y adecuada se obtiene cuando se logra discriminar entre rumores infundados e información científicamente fundamentada', entre otros aspectos prolijamente detallados en el contenido de la obra. Ricardo Molina Verdejo Historiador
