Synopsis
Traces the history of international broadcasting from its earliest origins, through its role as a subversive tool in WWII to the Cold War era, and finally to its present day use as an instrument of foreign policy used by more than 160 countries. Includes up-to-date technical data and statistics on major expansions now under way or being planned in many countries, particularly the US and the Arab states. An important and interesting overview, and by no means for scientists and engineers only. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
