The Leading Edge, 'I found this book very easy to read. Complex concepts are clearly explained and only essential mathematics is included. In particular the chapters on amplitudes and inversion were especially good and have not to my knowledge been adequately covered at an introductory level before. Each chapter concludes with a list of references which can be followed up if the reader requires more detailed information. The book is aimed at geologists and geophysicists who may be new to interpreting seismic data, and although titled 3-D Seismic Interpretation there is much to be learned from within this volume about interpretation of other forms of seismic data. For a comprehensive guide to getting the most out of seismic data [this book] has few competitors.' Geological Magazine, '... well-written, clearly illustrated and easy to follow. ... The ... price ... is also reasonable, making it affordable for graduate students. This volume should be highly useful for an introductory graduate-level class, but I would also recommend it to anyone wanting to quickly come up to speed on the basics of 3-D seismic interpretation. ... the principles of camera optics, practical photography and image processing are solid and well explained, making this book the perfect companion for a budding amateur astronomer.' EOS, "This reasonably priced book is excellent for petroleum geoscientists wishing to learn 3-D seismic technology, a key tool for mapping subsurface reservoir quality and hydrocarbon distribution. Mathematics are minimal but sufficient. I strongly recommend it to all librarians, academics, students and professionals." AAPG Bulletin B.K.
