Reviews

From the reviews of the second edition: “This book is very well written and quite enjoyable to read. … This book can serve both as textbook and as a reference source for wave scattering and stochastic modeling methods. It is well suited for graduate students and researchers in the fields of seismology, geophysics, acoustical engineering … . This book makes an important addition to any seismologist’s bookshelf as a treatise, but also as a reminder of the roughness and multi-scale complexity of the Earth.” (Petros Mpogiatzis, Pure and Applied Geophysics, October, 2012)
