There is a lesser-known, harder-to-find overall history of
electronics (includes radio) published by McGraw-Hill's bi-
weekly subscription periodical Electronics, 17 April 1980,
a commemorative Fiftieth Anniversary edition (over 900 pp)
which takes an all-inclusive overview of all electronics from
before the first demonstration of radio in 1896 up to 1980.



Keep a sharp eye out on newsgroup alt.binaries.e-book.technical for these
kinds of books, mostly in pdf format. It is an amazing source of ebooks
on all kinds of neat subjects.

(PS - Best not read the nuclear stuff and reports posted there if you're
"in range". I didn't know there were so MANY Little Chernobyls!)
