This book offers fascinating insights into the key technical and
scientific developments in the history of radar, from the first
patent, taken out by Hulsmeyer in 1904, through to the present day.
Landmark events are highlighted and fascinating insights provided
into the exceptional people who made possible the progress in the
field, including the scientists and technologists who worked
independently and under strict secrecy in various countries across
the world in the 1930s and the big businessmen who played an
important role after World War II. The book encourages multiple
levels of reading. The author is a leading radar researcher who is
ideally placed to offer a technical/scientific perspective as well
as a historical one. He has taken care to structure and write the
book in such a way as to appeal to both non-specialists and
experts. The book is not sponsored by any company or body, either
formally or informally, and is therefore entirely unbiased. The
text is enriched by approximately three hundred images, most of
which are original and have been accessed by detailed searches in
the archives.
