Reviews
This book comes from one of the leading experts of the field, and unfolds his research experiences in earthquake-based, seismic tomography for the study of Earth's (and Moon's) interior in local, regional and global scales. ... All tomographic images are in color, which is very helpful for the reader. ... this book is well written, enjoyable to read, and it is an excellent addition to the bookshelf of every student or scientist interested in Earth's and Lunar interior.
