Reviews
This book by Roach is clearly written and covers a vast amount of material in a formal manner. As such, the book nicely complements the author's earlier book in the area and can be recommended to anyone interested in an introduction to this important area of applied mathematics. -- David L. Colton SIAM Review The book offers a comprehensive introductory text in acoustic wave propagation and scattering by time--dependent perturbations which occur in a broad range of applications, including radar, sonar, engineering diagnostics, geophysical prospecting, ultrasonic medicine, etc. Even though the focus is placed more on the concepts and development of constructive methods rather than on the detailed proofs, the monograph is presented in a way that should appeal to both the theoretical and applied scientist working in the field of modern scattering theory and its applications. -- Leon S. Farhy Mathematical Reviews
