Excerpt from Works on Wireless Telegraphy and Allied Subjects

The reader who wishes to Obtain more highly technical information on this fascinating subject has the choice Of many books. The Author's two treatises, viz. An Elementary Manual Of Radiotelegraphy and Radio telephony and The Principles of Electric Wave Telegraphy and Telephony will provide this assistance for those possessed of some physical and mathematical knowledge.

In conclusion the Author desires to express his thanks to Marconi's Wireless Telegraph Company, and also to Mr. Duddell for their kindness in permitting the use of illustrations belonging to them.

The favourable reception given to this little book and consequent rapid exhaustion of the First Edition has enabled the Author to remove in this Second Edition a few little oversights in correcting the proofs of the First, and also to add to the final chapter one or two paragraphs bringing the general information on the subject up to date.

Excerpt from Works on Wireless Telegraphy and Allied Subjects

The Preface of a book is the place in which the Author makes his excuses for writing it, or his explanations of its scope and purpose. Following this practice, it may be mentioned that the writer published in 1902 a little book entitled "Waves and Ripples in Water, Air, and �ther," through The Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, which was a reprint, with some amplifications, of a Course of Christmas Lectures given at the Royal Institution, London. The last chapter of that book contains a brief reference to the then young art of radiotelegraphy. In the years that have since elapsed, this branch of telegraphy has developed with wonderful rapidity into a unique and most valuable means of communication. The importance of it is shown by the fact that three International Conventions and two Parliamentary Committees have deliberated at length on its regulation and condition within the short space of ten years. A large and highly technical literature has grown up around it, and an industry of considerable dimensions been created by it. Its astonishing achievements have raised a desire in the minds of the general public to know something of its mode of operation and possible future development, but in a form divested as far as possible of unexplained technicalities or abstruse formul�. Many of the popular books written with this object seem to the writer to give insufficient explanations of the physical processes involved.
