With the threat of depletion of conventional sources of energy there has been increased interest in harnessing geothermal energy for man’s use in many countries. However, there as comparatively few people with wide experience in the science and technology of developing this new energy resources.
The current energy crisis has generated an increased interest in alternate source of energy. Resources such as geothermal, solar, and ocean thermal are being actively considered for wide-spread development in the United States and many other countries throughout the world.
The eminent volcanologist T.A.

Seismic Ray Theory presents the most comprehensive treatment of the seismic ray method available. This method plays an important role in seismology, seismic exploration, and the interpretation of seismic measurements. The book presents a consistent treatment of the seismic ray method, based on the asymptotic high-frequency solution of the elastodynamic equation.
The past 25 years have been vast expansion in the field of igneous petrology to accommodate a wide range of new information from both the Earth and other terrestrial planets. This has made the subject far more interesting, but has also resulted in a marked increase in both the amount and the degree of specialization of the available literature.
