CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
Selected References
Radio—Television—Data
T HE arrangement of these lists, which follow
the same order as in the previous edition,
facilitates the finding of publications dealing
with specific branches of the radio science.
It must be once more pointed out that the
lists are not intended to be exhaustive, as Foreign,
Trade, Institution and Society publications are
not included ; but in one or more of the books
mentioned the reader should be able to find sufficient
data to satisfy his requirements.
Under the heading “ Miscellaneous ” will be
found several books that may not appear to be
of direct interest to the radio amateur, but in view
of the increasing importance of the ultra-short
and micro-waves in therapeutic treatment, and in
bacteriological and pathological research, a study
of such works will prove of great interest, and,
indeed, may lead to experiments and subsequent
discoveries of value to humanity. Also several
meteorological books are named, as a knowledge
of this subject is necessary to those engaged on
radio-wave propagational problems.
The most noticeable alteration to previous lists
is the inclusion, under “ Reference and Data Books,”
of a list of “ Lighting Calculators ” published by the
American Radio Relay League (A.R.R.L.). It is
felt that these will be welcomed by newcomers and
” old hands ” alike, as they represent a means of
performing speedy and accurate computations of
those common calculations that crop up every day
in radio work.
