Understanding the interaction of waves with obstacles is fundamental in many areas of science and engineering. This book synthesises mathematical methods for solving such scattering problems, with an emphasis on time-dependent problems. It will be a valuable resource for applied mathematicians, physicists and engineers.

Multiple scattering is the mathematical theory needed to understand the interaction of waves with obstacles; this book is the first devoted to it. The author covers a variety of techniques, and shows how to apply them to different types of problems. A 1400 item bibliography rounds off this essential reference.
