Fundamentals of seismic wave propagation

【摘要】Simply put, this is a great book for professional researchers in seismology. What I mean is, despite the statement in the Preface that “This book is intended as a text for a graduate or a research level course”, I cannot imagine finding a graduate student who can enjoy learning materials from this book. Prerequisite for understanding this book seems to be too hard for graduate students now. i, for one, have not even tried in a lecture for graduate students to explain what the Cagniard method is in the last ten years. This is, of course, not the fault of this book but rather the outcome of our educational system (in the United States), or the values held in today's society. Unfortunately, so few of our graduate students ever learn the beauty and magic in such concepts as contour integration and the meaning of poles in different Riemann sheets. Readers must have some exposure to these concepts before digesting the materials in this book.
