"This volume contains a comprehensive, worldwide history of seismological studies
of the Earth's crust using controlled sources from 1850 to 2005. Essentially all major
seismic projects on land and the most important oceanic projects are covered. The
time period 1850 to 1939 is presented as a general synthesis, and from 1940 onward
the history and results are presented in separate chapters for each decade, with the
material organized by geographical region. Each chapter highlights the major advances
achieved during that decade in terms of data acquisition, processing technology, and
interpretation methods. For all major seismic projects, the authors provide specific
details on field observations, interpreted crustal cross sections, and key references.
They conclude with global and continental-scale maps of all field measurements and
interpreted Moho contours. An accompanying DVD contains important out-of-print publications
and an extensive collection of controlled-source data, location maps, and crustal
cross sections."--Publisher's description
