Reviews
'This book provides an excellent introduction to the rapidly emerging field of near-surface geophysics. The state-of-the-art material covered in the text will not only be helpful for undergraduate and graduate students, but it will also serve as a valuable reference for practitioners.' Hansruedi Maurer, ETH Zurich 'A great book for teaching undergraduates the essence of all geophysical techniques used in near surface exploration; the mix of theory, practice and case studies is just right for students.' Graham Heinson, University of Adelaide 'This is an excellent text for advanced geophysics undergraduate and graduate students, a valuable resource for scientists and engineers involved in characterizing the earth's near surface, and the material fills a void in the bookshelves of many geoscientists.' Doug Oldenburg, University of British Columbia 'In summary, this is an excellent advanced near-surface applied-geophysics textbook. Unlike many traditional exploration geophysics textbooks, this one also includes the basic geophysical exploration data analysis and inversion chapters. This is indeed an important near-surface applied-geophysics textbook, covering most up-to-date near-surface applied-geophysics techniques.' The Leading Edge
