David Morgan has degrees in Physics, Radio Astronomy and Plasma Physics and has been involved with the development of EMC design and testing in the United Kingdom since 1970. From 1973 he was concerned with the EMC design and testing of spacecraft, military hardware, automobiles, and industrial and commercial electronics. Having designed, built and obtained certification for one of the first EMC testing facilities in the United Kingdom to use computer control for automatic testing, the practical experience he gained has been the basis of this book.
