Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

"After a short discussion on what radar is, the physical principles underlying pulse radar systems are discussed in some detail. The principal developments of radar, from Tesla’s concept in 1900 of a method for detecting the presence and movement of distant objects, to Chester Rice’s experiments with primitive radars in the 1930s, are treated in chronological order. The emergence of radar in the United Kingdom, Germany, the United States, France, Italy, Japan, Russia, Holland and Hungary is then examined, and, with the exception of the latter two countries, an annotated bibliography is provided in each case.The work in the United Kingdom is then chosen for more detailed attention. The political and technical backgrounds to the development of the Chain Home and related systems are treated in detail, as is the emergence of the early metric airborne radar sets." Ex military library stock so expect to see light wear and possible markings and annotations in the text. Dust-jacket in good condition. Slight wear and small paper nips. Binder in very good condition. No significant defects of note other very light marking. Boards robust. Hinge action good. Edges clean and sharp. Quick flickthrough of text shows few marks other than initial library stamp, though initial library page missing. Overall good to very good condition. 1986 US edition. Quick dispatchMany thanks for supporting independents.
