BookSurge is affiliated with Amazon. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Guglielmo Marconi, 1st Marquis of Marconi (25 April 1874 - 20 July 1937) was… an Italian inventor and electrical engineer known for his pioneering work on long-distance radio transmission and for his development of Marconi's law and a radio telegraph system. He is usually credited as the inventor of radio, and he shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Karl Ferdinand Braun "in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy". Marconi was also an entrepreneur, businessman, and founder of The Wireless Telegraph & Signal Company in the United Kingdom in 1897 (which became the Marconi Company). He succeeded in making an engineering and commercial success of radio by innovating and building on the work of previous experimenters and physicists In 1929, Marconi was ennobled as a Marchese (marquis) by King Victor Emmanuel III of Italy and, in 1931, he set up the Vatican Radio The author wrote: I have been working on Marconi, the Father of Wireless, the Grandfather of Radio, the Great Grandfather of the Cell Phone for over thirty years. During this period, I was General Counsel and Secretary of an international conglomerate, Norton Simon, Inc. While on business trips, I was able to visit many Marconi sites in England, Ireland and Italy. Because I went to Exeter, Yale and Harvard Law School, I was already familiar with Cape Cod where Marconi did some of his earliest work, including sending the first wireless message across the Atlantic Ocean. My first jobs were as a corporate lawyer doing securities work which has given me great insight into Marconi's company beginning as a hi tech start-up, his first ipo and spin-offs of parts of his foreign subsidiaries, acquisition of the leading U.S. company, Lee de Forest's United Wireless, and achieving worldwide monopoly status.
