  1. A perfect niche book
    I’ve been dusting off a lapsed lifelong professional interest in RF, network technologies and related areas recently, and as part of that research I stumbled across this excellent book. If you’ve dug around the field at all you probably have realized that there are two large categories of books on RF and communications. The first is the very superficial, utterly non-technical book that will let you pick the topic out of a line up but not really understand it. The second large category is the college textbook written for electrical engineers, which is full of Grrek letter -laden formulae and is incredibly technical. Both serve their purposes to be sure, but are not universally relevant or accessible.Sinclair’s book starts off at a very, very basic level and uses plain, conversational language to explain RF theory from the ground up. It really is a fantastic resource that I keep going back to for fundamental points in a readily comprehensible format. I recommend this book professionally to a lot of people who lack a decent grasp of the basics, and without exception they are up to speed in very short order once this book arrives.Well written, organized and very sound. Can’t recommend this book highly enough.

  2. How Radio Signals Work–for the non-technical audience
    It is unfortunate that this book is out of print and is available only as used. The book begins with the basic concepts of magnetic and electric fields and gradually introduces the more complex aspects of modulation and reception. It is organized as a basic text that can be studied individually or in a classroom setting. I wish it were available as a class textbook in basic electronics. One of the surprising revelations is that there was no study of electronics before there was radio. I would recommend this book to anyone with any curiosity regarding how radio, television, or microwave signals exist and are received.

  3. Clear, common sense approach to radio and electronics
    So here you are – out of your element because your upcoming (or hoped-for) promotion requires lots of new knowledge. After I bought one myself just because the title was interesting, I’ve recommended it to three other non-technical folks over the last two years. No complaints. An easy, fun read. Honest! (-:

  4. Poorly written.
    Not what i expect. Only read the 1st two chapters and i am just as confused about the subject as before i started.You can learn more from wikipedia than from this book. I don’t think you need a thick book to explain the subject in laymans terms. I was expected to see things like “an oscillator create a sinusoidal signal which is radiated from the antena then broken down into carrier waves, sidebands, etc.” How the signal is broken up, and the detection process that recreate the original signal.If this explanation is in the book i didn’t see it. One day when i learn the subject i will write a book. “Not everyone can teach”

  5. lectro magnetic waves
    this is a good book and is recommneded…as long as you understand that it is about radio WAVES!! not radios. i was very interested in the book, but kept looking for radio stuff! which is not there. the discussion of radio wave transmission,however is good. With this in mind,i recommend the book. Just read the title!
