Telecommunications is a major global industry, and this unique book
chronicles the development of this complex technology from the
electric telegraph to the Internet in a simple, accessible, and
entertaining way. The book opens with the early years of the
electric telegraph. The reader will learn how the Morse telegraph
evolved into an international network that spanned the globe,
starting with the development of international undersea cables, and
the heroic attempts to lay a trans-Atlantic cable. The book
describes the events that led to the invention of the telephone,
and the subsequent disputes over who had really invented it. It
takes a look at some of the most important applications that have
appeared on the Internet, the mobile revolution, and ends with a
discussion of future key developments in the telecommunications
industry.
