Preface
This book is dedicated to the memory of my teachers, colleagues and internationally renowned geophysicists, Prof. Boris E. Khesin (Azerbaijan – Israel) and Dr. Vyacheslav V. Alexeyev (Azerbaijan – Russia). I began to prepare this book together with Boris, but he died peacefully on November 2010 (see Eppelbaum (2011b)). Vyacheslav passed away tragically earlier in December 1998 in Russia. The Caucasian Mountains occupy an area of about 440,000 km2. A number of important mineral resources are concentrated there. Geophysical data on the geological structure of Caucasus can shed light on the basic principles of evolution of the Earth, the distribution of minerals and seismic activity.
