Book review: Seismic acquisition from yesterday to tomorrow
In this 236-page volume, Julien Meunier presents a thorough description of P-wave seismic data acquisition. The treatment includes historical aspects along with some discussion of trends for the future, but the main focus is on present-day approaches and their theoretical underpinnings. Although it was written as the text for the 2011 Distinguished Instructor Short Course, I found the book to be quite readable in a stand-alone context and of considerable interest despite my being a bit outside of the primary target audience. I believe that the book would be valuable as an auxiliary text for a graduate-level course, or even as reading for independent study on the topic.
