An Introduction to Echo Analysis: Scattering Theory and Wave Propagation (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)

This is an introduction to scattering phenomena and a guide to the technical requirements for investigating wave scattering problems. It reviews the principal mathematical topics required for approaching wave propagation and scattering problems, and shows how to develop the required solutions.

The emphasis is on concepts and results rather than on the fine detail of proof. Each chapter ends with a bibliography pointing to more detailed proofs.
