Since 904 is "Collected accounts of events", that is probably why your 
vendor put it there. I checked with my public library and they have it in 
904.  The LOC also has it in 904.

I would put it there unless the focus is more on the Math, but if the 
emphasis is the disasterss all over the world, then it should be in 904.

Subject: TARGET: Cataloging question "Megadisasters"


Happy Groundhog day all,

I have a book "Megadisasters: The science of predicting the next 
catastrophe" by Florin Diacu.  The book talks about the types of disasters, 
how they impact people, and  how scientists are coming up with mathematical 
models to try to predict the next disaster and uses examples of earthquakes, 
climate changes, and the financial crisis.  The MARC records I got from the 
vendor put it into 904, but I feel like it should be in the 500s somewhere, 
but I'm not sure where.  Does anyone have this in their collection?
