"Instead of being an abstraction, the math in this book comes alive as the tool that EEs have always thought it to be...It has a place in the libraries of experienced EEs: It does a good job not only of teaching the underlying theory of radio, but also of entertaining readers." EDN Explore the fascinating world of AM radio with this unique book and master key concepts in electrical engineering and physics. Unlike most texts that begin with a deluge of scientific detail, The Science of Radio takes a "top down" approach. It starts from a global perspective and gradually introduces theory and formula. Dr. Nahin also employs a "just in time" strategy, introducing new mathematical and physical theories only as they are needed to understand a topic. Paul Nahin's engaging style is accessible to any student who's completed a first- year calculus and physics course. About the Author Paul J. Nahin is Professor of Electrical Engineering at the University of New Hampshire. Along with dozens of nationally published science fiction stories, he is the author of the AIP Press bestseller Time Machines.
