This intriguing volume by C.F. Petersen delves into the intricate realm of wave propagation in rocks, a subject of profound significance in fields such as seismology, geophysics, and petroleum engineering. Published in the latter half of the 20th century, when advancements in computing power and numerical modeling were revolutionizing the study of wave phenomena, this work likely explores the challenges and methodologies associated with scaling these complex processes across different spatial and temporal scales. Petersen’s expertise in this domain would have been invaluable, as accurate modeling of wave propagation is crucial for understanding phenomena ranging from earthquake dynamics to the behavior of subsurface reservoirs. This copy, in remarkably good condition, presents a rare opportunity for collectors and researchers alike to delve into a pivotal work that undoubtedly contributed to our understanding of the intricate interplay between waves and the rock formations that shape our planet.
