Karl F Graff London: Clarendon/Oxford University Press 1975 pp xvii + 649 price £15 A comprehensive and clear account is given of the theoretical and experimental work on elastic wave propagation for (mostly) homogeneous isotropic Hookean solids. The present textbook comprises first approximate treatments for engineering structural elements, followed by rigorous treatments for infinite and finite media, with coverage of the usual linear wave phenomena, advanced mathematical methods (eg integral transform theory) being heavily drawn upon.
