Seismic Wavefields in Layered Isotropic Media
by Ilya Tsvankin

The book is devoted to asymptotic and numerical analysis of point-source radiation in 1-D isotropic media with an emphasis on the physics of wave propagation. Includes a detailed discussion of wave phenomena not accounted for by the standard ray theory. Covers material from the second semester of a two-semester seismological course that the author teaches in the Geophysics Department at CSM. 100 pages and 27 figures.
Due to the presence of scanned figures, this uncompresses to nearly 16 MB. I will split this up into smaller chunks as soon as I have time.
