This is a book on seismology dealing with advanced aspects of wave propagation in complex media. It can also be viewed as a book on mathematical modelling, wherein the accuracy of describing seismic phenomena exemplifies the modelling itself. The book gives an insight into the power of abstractness by applying the same mathematical methods and strategies to solve a variety of different physical problems. This book covers a broad range of topics in an advanced yet accessible manner. Each chapter is accompanied by a number of solved exercises, which render the book convenient for a lecturer and facilitate its use for an independent study. The details of mathematical methods are discussed in the appendices, which form a substantial portion of the book.
