While experts in the field will benefit from the various new concepts developed in this volume, it is primarily intended as an introductory textbook for readers interested in transient wave propagation as well as plane-wave composition and decomposition approaches in stratified media. The level of treatment is suitable for advanced undergraduate/graduate students following courses in geophysics, optics, acoustics, electromagnetics, etc.
