Inside the Vacuum Tube

by John F. Rider

One of the most thorough (and funny) books ever written on the way vacuum tubes function. Rider's mastery of analogies common to most of us makes the book especially useful for learning about tubes. Often humorous drawings by Baxter Rowe help to demonstrate key concepts.

2002, 1945, 407pp., 5 3/8" x 8 1/4", softbound.
