Fundamentals of Geophysics

---

This second edition of Fundamentals of Geophysics has been completely revised and updated, and is the ideal geophysics textbook for undergraduate students of geoscience with only an introductory level of knowledge in physics and mathematics. Presenting a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles of each major
branch of geophysics (gravity, seismology, geochronology, thermodynamics, geoelectricity, and geomagnetism), this text also considers geophysics within the wider context of plate tectonics, geodynamics, and planetary science. Basic principles are explained with the aid of numerous figures, and important geophysical results are
illustrated with examples from scientific literature. Step-by-step mathematical treatments are given where necessary, allowing students to easily follow the derivations.

Text boxes highlight topics of interest for more advanced students. Each chapter contains a short historical summary and ends with a reading list that directs students to a range of simpler, alternative, or more advanced, resources. This new edition also includes review questions to help evaluate the reader’s understanding of the topics covered, and quantitative exercises at the end of each chapter. Solutions to
the exercises are available to instructors.
