Theoretical Global Seismology
Editorial Reviews
Thorne Lay, Physics Today August 1999
Theoretical Global Seismology is a masterful accomplishment for its rigor, completeness, and clarity of presentation. The material will be challenging, even for the most experienced seismologists, but therein lies the primary contribution of this treatise: It brings together for the first time a complete accounting of the theory for contemporary normal-mode analysis. This will be an enduring contribution that benefits not only experts in the field, but also geophysicists interested in the results extracted from seismology.
Guy Masters, Seismological Research Letters
"...[T]his book is a remarkable achievement and, thanks to PUP, a great value. If you are a global seismologist, there is no excuse for not having this book on your bookshelf--and you should even read most of it! If you are a graduate student, this beast will take a little effort to absorb, but be assured--this really is the right way to think about global seismology."
