Publisher's Synopsis
The Misadventures of Interpreter Sam (SEG Geophysical Monograph Series No. 15) is a collection of the first six years of "Interpreter Sam" columns from The Leading Edge. It contains commentary on both the humorous and serious sides of an interpreter's day from the point of view of the fictitious Interpreter Sam, our Everyman of interpretation. Sam introduces each chapter with a caricature of himself (an interpretation of his own "reflection," if you will, created by the talented artist David Carman), and in the epilogue he offers a special gift to his friends in data processing. This book can be read and enjoyed by anyone who has ever interpreted even a single seismic line, by eager students who aspire to be interpreters, and by non-geoscientists who presume that they know how interpreters think.
