The second edition of Principles of Seismology has been extensively
revised and updated to present a modern approach to observation
seismology and the theory behind digital seismograms. It includes:
a new chapter on Earthquakes, Earth's structure and dynamics; a
considerably revised chapter on instrumentation, with new material
on processing of modern digital seismograms and a list of website
hosting data and seismological software; and 100 end-of-chapter
problems. The fundamental physical concepts on which seismic theory
is based are explained in full detail with step-by-step development
of the mathematical derivations, demonstrating the relationship
between motions recorded in digital seismograms and the mechanics
of deformable bodies. With chapter introductions and summaries,
numerous examples, newly drafted illustrations and new color
figures, and an updated bibliography and reference list, this
intermediate-level textbook is designed to help students develop
the skills to tackle real research problems.
