First Sentence
In principle, the recording of an alternating electrical signal as a series of magnetic fluctuations on a continuous magnetisable tape would not appear to be a difficult matter, since it could be done by causing the AC signal to generate corresponding changes in the magnetic flux across the gap of an electromagnet, and these could then be impressed on the tape as it passes over the recording electromagnet head.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Poor value for money,
By A Customer
This review is from: Audio Electronics (Paperback)
I found this book expensive for the information it contained. It covers a wide range of topics but does not go into great depth on any. Some of the drawings were incorrect (power supplies showing incorrect polarities, diodes the wrong way round etc.). The paper quality was very poor. You could find better quality and information in books half the price.I hold John Linsley Hood in high esteem and he has written many superb articles for magazines in the past. This book seems totally out of character for him.

This review is from: Audio Electronics (Paperback)
A great book and I have learnt a lot from it that will help me with modern technology. There are some errors in the diagrams on power supplies, reversing the polarity of the power supplies.

Good book, lots of theory, examples...,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Audio Electronics (Paperback)
This is a pretty good book. There are lots of examples and
theory, however the detailed explinations of circuits just
aren't there. You need to be pretty well versed in basic
electronic theory before picking up this book.
