Gravimetry provides us with information about the topography of the internal boundaries but, as with seismology, the solution is not unique and does not say anything about the movements. This book is the result of a request for an introductory course on the physics of the Earth's interior. I was asked to give such a course for geodesists in the summer of 1982, at Admont (Austria), by the University of Graz: the objective was above all to "open the barriers" by offering geodesists a condensed knowledge of those essential physical topics which would allow them to follow, with greater facility, the most recent developments in internal geophysics. This book is an enlarged version...
