Reviews
From the reviews: "It serves as a primer for anyone with an interest or need to know about telecommunications. With its assumption of little technical knowledge, and bright writing style, Dot-Dash To Dot Com is perfect for a layman to read. ... Dot-Dash To Dot Com strikes a thoughtful balance between the technical and human history. ... I certainly enjoyed and learned from it." (Bookbag, June, 2011) "Wheen, an experienced UK-based telecommunications industry professional, presents a historical development of the telecommunications industry and demonstrates how inventions produced by the telecommunications revolution have changed the world. ... explains how the Internet works and what lies ahead. The book reserves the more detailed technical discussions for the appendixes. Well illustrated, with an extensive glossary of terms used by the telecommunications industry at the end. Summing Up: Recommended. All levels/libraries." (F. A. Cassara, Choice, Vol. 48 (10), June, 2011) "Dot-Dash to Dot Com by Andrew Wheen ... is extremely easy to get straight into due to the author's interesting historical facts and entertaining anecdotes of events that occurred in the early days of telecommunications. ... I would definitely recommend this book to anyone generally interested in scientific historical books or if studying a telecommunications course. I found it an extremely easy read, very informative, well laid out with lots of great photos, some in color." (Hazel Jones, Engineering and Technology Magazine, Vol. 6 (3), March, 2011) "Andrew Wheen has done an excellent job of making a potentially complex subject entertaining, informative and accessible. Communications technology is used by everyone, so the book is relevant to everybody ... . More technical detail is presented in a comprehensive section of footnotes - so 2 bookmarks are useful - and even more technical matters reside in Appendices that might be the realm of the serious A level student or first year undergraduate. ... If you use the telephone read this book." (W. Duncan, Amazon, July, 2011), From the reviews:It serves as a primer for anyone with an interest or need to know about telecommunications.

Very hard to find these in hard cover, but I am so pleased that they are available in paperback. I bought 3 to give to others, as this devotion needs to be revised again!!! These copies are brand new. Very happy with my purchase.
