Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Telephone Hand-Book This little book has no pretension to be considered a complete treatise on telephony as it exists in America. The time for such a work is not yet come. But it is felt that there is a demand for a practical book on telephone working and management, and The Telephone Hand-Book is an attempt at meeting that demand. With the exception of a few chapters dealing with certain forms of transmitters and receivers used in Europe, which are given for the information of those who are unfamiliar with other types of instruments than those used in this country, the book is based entirely on standard American practice; and most of the material, apparatus and methods described are peculiar to or have originated in this country. With the illustrations no time nor trouble has been spared to make them clear and intelligible, and of real service to the reader. The great majority of them have been executed especially for the book; quite a number have never been published before, others have appeared in the Electrical Engineer and Electrical Review, generally in connection with my own articles. These latter have been re-drawn from the original material wherever possible. As this is the first practical book on American telephone methods, sins of commission and omission will no doubt be met with in its pages. Any suggestions or corrections, which may be addressed to the care of the publishers, will be received in a spirit of due modesty and thankfulness.

Download or read book A Manual of Telephony Classic Reprint written by William Henry Preece and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Telephony In November, 1888, was published one of the volumes of the Specialists Series, entitled The Telephone, the authors being W.H. Preece and Julius Maier, Ph.D. The reception extended to this work was of the most gratifying character; but the rapid strides made in practical telephony since that time, together with the fact that Dr. Maiers services were no longer available, led to the decision that the original volume should not be re-issued, but should be replaced by the present work. We desire here to recognise and acknowledge the use that we have made of Dr. Maiers previous labours, particularly in connection with the earlier portions of this book, which deal principally with historical telephony. No slight difficulty has been experienced in determining what information should be given and what excluded. As, on the one hand a minute and particular description of all conditions is unnecessary for the experienced specialist; so, on tlie other hand, the neglect of minor details may lead to very great inconvenience to others who, in isolated districts, wish to avail themselves of the fruits of the labours of their more favoured colleagues. We have spared no pains to secure such due proportion in the descriptions of the various apparatus and systems as shall meet the wants of both these classes.

Download or read book American Telephone Practice Classic Reprint written by Kempster B. Miller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-03 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Telephone Practice That a third edition of this work should have been called for within three months after the appearance of the first is indeed gratifying. The time since the second edition was exhausted has been utilized in making many changes in the matter already presented, and in the preparation of much new matter, all of which it is thought will make the work more valuable as a guide and general reference-book in practical telephony. The chapter on Automatic Exchanges has been written because the book seemed incomplete without it. If it is here. After criticised for containing no descriptions of practical appa ratus, my plea will be that it is mainly the fault of the subject. That very important factor in modern telephony, the storage battery, was certainly very inadequately handled in the first edi tion. Chapter XXXV. Is intended to remedy this. The last chapter, on Specifications, is given as a help rather than as an inflexible guide to those drawing specifications. The specifications given represent modern practice, but they are not meant to serve in the place of common sense or of engineering ability.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Telephone System of the British Post Office: A Practical Handbook The primary Object Of the articles was to describe in detail the trunk system; but it was considered desirable to give some account of first principles, and accordingly the transmission of speech, transmitters, receivers, and, in fact, telephone stations generally, were briefly described. The writer is aware that much of this has been described times without number, but his experience as a teacher leads him to believe that the inclusion of this matter will render the book useful to a larger circle of readers. The first eight chapters may be said to be introductory to the subject of telephony generally. The permanent current systems nextly receive attention, and their various classes of switch sections. After this follow special switches, such as transfer boards, record table switch sections, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Greek Prose Composition Classic Reprint written by Henry Carr Pearson and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dumb No Longer: Romance of the Telephone The interesting facts that the writer found form a story so fascinating that it is a source of regret that some gifted writer has not framed it in the language it merits, and brought out more fully the interesting details. For they reveal how the earnest efforts of three women paved the way for - and made possible - the consummation of the cherished hopes of the in ventor and led to the perfecting of that masterly conception of the theory of the transmission of speech electrically, many years earlier than it otherwise would have been. And to all who aided in bringing about the invention of the electric-speaking tele phone at a period when the leaders in physical, electrical, and mechanical sciences either failed to grasp the magnitude of the conception, or believed that while theoretically it was sublime, in practice it would prove of little value, the world will ever owe a debt of gratitude that will multiply as the years roll on.

Download or read book The Telephone and Telephone Exchanges written by John E. Kingsbury and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Telephone and Telephone Exchanges: Their Invention and Development In the following pages the attempt has been made so to relate the inventions and developments in the telephone field that the record may constitute in effect a short history of the telephone industry. The original intention was to write a history, but I was advised on authority which in the book world is entitled to respect not to exceed the limits of a single volume. As that advice has been followed it is considered that the word 'history' as a title should be held in reserve for the use of the author or authors who may produce the comprehensive treatise which the subject deserves. The original intention has, however, been followed in an abbreviated form. The principal inventions have been selected. The circumstances leading up to them, the developments resulting from them, and the influences bearing on them, have been considered with all the detail that space permits. But telephone exchange service is not merely a matter of plant and invention. Technical, commercial, and political threads compose the fabric, and they are interwoven in the record. The recital of the prior causes has served in most cases to make clear the technical features. In recounting the progress of Bell's invention reference is frequently made to the evidence given by him in various suits, noted for the sake of brevity as 'Deposition.' The full title is 'The Bell Telephone: The Deposition of Alexander Graham Bell in the suit brought by the United States to annul the Bell patents.' The suit was abandoned, but the deposition (in which is included evidence taken in other suits) was printed in 1908 by the American Bell Telephone Co. 'because of its historical value and scientific interest.' This book of 469 pages, though not published in the ordinary sense, is available for reference in most technical libraries.

Download or read book Operator s Wireless Telegraph and Telephone Handbook written by Victor Hugo Laughter and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Operator's Wireless Telegraph and Telephone Handbook: A Complete Treatise on the Construction and Operation of the Wireless Telegraph and Telephone, Including the Rules of Naval Stations, Codes, Abbreviations, Etc The writer has been long impressed with the fact that a book on the subject of Wireless was needed, which would not only explain the more simple working system but those of the more complicated design as well. Many good books are on the market relating to wireless telegraphy, but in the usual cases the subject is treated in either a rudimentary or a technical manner. The student soon passes over the experimental stage and desires to take up work with the more complicated instruments. This book has been written with the end in view of leading the student through the experimental stage, on up to the more complicated types of wireless telegraph and telephone instruments. Various rules and regulations as used at the present day have been inserted, as well as the different codes. At points where thought advisable the actual construction of the instruments used is gone into and all details given. A statement made on page 105 reads as follows: "It is to be regretted that, as yet, we have no schools of wireless telegraphy which would serve to bring the student and the operating companies in closer relationship. However, the demand exists and such schools will ultimately follow." The truthfulness of this statement has already been proven, for since the pages of the book were set up the writer has become connected with an institute of this kind.

Download or read book Practical Information for Telephonists Classic Reprint written by Thomas Dixon Lockwood and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Information for Telephonists Most of the articles were originally written for, and have already appeared in, the operator; but in preparing them for publication in book form, they have all been carefully revised by the author, and, in nearly every instance, more or less rewritten. They were all written with pleasure to the author, and with the desire that they might be not only interesting but profitable to the reader. This book is not put forward as a text-book of electrical science, a manual of telegraphy, or even as a complete hand-book of the telephone; neither is it intended so much for the delectation and instruction of professional and accomplished electricians as a popular means of conveying practical ideas, mainly proved to be practical by actual practice, to that large and daily increasing constituency of telephone inspectors and operators and, also, to the equally large class of amateurs who, by the spirit of the age, have become interested in the electric telephone and its practical application.
