Wireless World - History

History

The Marconi Company published the first issue of the journal The Marconigraph In April 1911. It was the first journal written especially for wireless communication and circulated largely among engineers and operators.

In 1913 the name was changed to The Wireless World and in April the first issue was sold on news-stands.

From April 1922 it was known as The Radio Review. This journal was first published October 1919 and ended as part of The Wireless World.

The title was changed in September 1984 to Electronics and Wireless World, and later to Electronics World.

A sister publication was Wireless Engineer which was more of a learned journal than a popular magazine, featuring high quality articles.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The history of medicine is the history of the unusual.”
    —Robert M. Fresco, and Jack Arnold. Prof. Gerald Deemer (Leo G. Carroll)

    “Literary works cannot be taken over like factories, or literary forms of expression like industrial methods. Realist writing, of which history offers many widely varying examples, is likewise conditioned by the question of how, when and for what class it is made use of.”
    —Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)

    “I am ashamed to see what a shallow village tale our so-called History is. How many times must we say Rome, and Paris, and Constantinople! What does Rome know of rat and lizard? What are Olympiads and Consulates to these neighboring systems of being? Nay, what food or experience or succor have they for the Esquimaux seal-hunter, or the Kanaka in his canoe, for the fisherman, the stevedore, the porter?”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
