The early history of electronics I. Electromagnetics before Hertz
Charles Süsskind · IEEE Spectrum · 1968
The first of a series of articles by an authority on the history of electronics traces the descent of that branch of technology from one of its parent sciences, electromagnetics. The work of Hertz and the beginnings and development of radiotelegraphy after the flowering of the other parent science, electron theory, will be the subjects of future articles in the series.
