William Lowrie et al.: Basic Geophysics
A continuing high popularity textbook was re-writed and completely updated. The 12 new chapters cover the same range of topics as the previous ones. It's built in a fairly modern way to be comfortable with the lectures. The theory of geophysical physics and its application, and the clear explanation for the physics principles, are well dissolved with the step-by-step guidance of major equations. There are more than 400 specific images of oil and mineral resources, as well as the internal structure and characteristics of the earth. New themes include the latest data collection techniques and background interventions, such as geophysical satellites, planetary probes, undersea seismographs, and fiber optics, as well as the latest research in earthquake risk analysis, fluidization and shame modeling. All of this is explained in examples from scientific literature. They're also friendly to their students. A list of separate boxes, entry documents, and other textbooks at a similar level, as well as professional books containing more details, as a review and renewed practice problem given to each end of the chapter. What's really new about the third edition is that all of Python practice problems have been added. They're designed to help students acquire important programming skills and to understand geophysical more deeply.
