Summary: a good book with bad opinions
Comment: This is an excellent book which combines the history, the
mathematics and the physics of radio. It is not a textbook
and you need to know calculus and physics to understand its
technical chapters. It has ten appendices, they explain the
"bottom" material or background needed in the book. However,
the all book is well written and it has an excellent presentation.
I think that the author's opinions about the
radio developers such as Marconi, DeForest and Tesla
are out of place in a book like this. So I gave three starts.
Rating: 5
Summary: Well done
Comment: I have been a fan of Paul Nahin's writting since I came across his book an imaginary tale ... In this text he clearly describes the history as well as the EE of radio. It is an excellent book and I especially enjoyed the appendices and matlab and electronics workbench examples.

Summary: A revelation!
Comment: I've never met a technical book as well-written as this one. Imagine what if Maxwell's Treatise had been written by himself in collaboration with Martin Gardner and ... Bill Bryson! Paul Nahin is a great writer, and I can only imagine how great a teacher he must be. I will buy every single book he writes. Don't be misled: this is a very serious book, and the pleasure of its reading comes from a very sound teaching philosophy (called top-down by Nahin) combined with a knack for history, which gives context to every topic. Look at the table of contents, and you will see that the author means business.
