Fleming, John Ambrose. Principles of electric wave telegraphy. *$6.60. Longmans.

A treatise based to a large extent upon the author’s Cantor lectures delivered before the Society of arts in London. It is a three part work treating respectively of electric oscillations, electric waves, and electric wave telegraphy.


“The book seems destined to occupy the same place in the field of oscillatory currents as the author’s work on the ‘Alternating current transformer’ did in the field of ordinary alternating currents. It is a book deserving the careful attention of the student, of the physicist, and of the engineer, as well as of the telegrapher.” Samuel Sheldon.
