A propos de cet article

Textbook reflecting data, techniques and theory developed through early 1960's on effectiveness of electrical prospecting. This was the first English language textbook on the subject since the early 1940s. Eight chapters: electrical properties of earth materials; electrical well logging; Galvanic resistivity, magneto-telluric resistivity; telluric current; Induction; radio wave; and, induced polarization. Each chapter ends with references to literature for additional study. Appendices have tables for materials and function vales. Nice introduction to the subject. It has become a standard reference in applied electrical geophysics. vii + 519pp. This title was volume 10 in Pergamon's International Series of Monographs in Electromagnetic Waves, edited by A. L. Cullen, V. A. Fock, and J. R. Wait. George V. Keller (1927-2012) was a geophysicist noted for his pioneering work in the field of electrical exploration geophysics technologies. Professor Keller taught at Colorado School of Mines, Golden, Colorado. Frank Conrad Frischknecht (1928-1987) worked for U.S. Geological Survey in Denver, Colorado. Hardcover has blue cloth boards with brown shadowbox containing gold lettering on spine, but no DJ. Although at first glance this book appears as new, but it has been modified to look that way. Front paste-down has scar from removal of ex-libris sticker, rear end-pages are glued together, and top page-edge has had an ownership stamp whited out. Interior is tight, clean and unmarked except for an ink-stamped "213734" on ToC. Still, book opens as if never read. Well above average interior. Copyright 1966. Stated: First Edition 1966. Print-line: 2512/66. 1st printing assumed. No ISBN nor MSR. LCCN: 66-12653.
