About this Book

Those fortunate enough to hear the unique and delightful verbal presentation of "Pitfalls in Seismic Interpretation" will be gratified by this printed version of the same classic paper. Messrs. Tucker and Yorston are to be congratulated for having an extraordinary idea and for sharing it in detail with their fellow explorationists. Clearly their wisdom is born of experience, not all of which was pleasant. This work will be appreciated not only by the old-timers in the profession but by the newcomers as they gradually realize the earth's crust is not a well-ordered system and that the seismic events resulting therefrom are even less well ordered.
