About this product

Product Information

The modern radio is a wonder, and behind that magic is mathematics. In The Mathematical Radio , Paul Nahin explains how radios work, deploying mathematics and historical discussion, accompanied by a steady stream of intriguing puzzles for math buffs to ponder. Beginning with oscillators and circuits, then moving on to AM, FM, and single-sideband radio, Nahin focuses on the elegant mathematics underlying radio technology rather than the engineering. He explores and explains more than a century of key developments, placing them in historical and technological context. Nahin, a prolific author of books on math for the general reader, describes in fascinating detail the mathematical underpinnings of a technology we use daily. He explains and solves, for example, Maxwell's equations for the electromagnetic field. Readers need only a familiarity with advanced high school-level math to follow Nahin's mathematical discussions. Writing with the non-engineer in mind, Nahin examines topics including impulses in time and frequency, spectrum shifting at the transmitter, the superheterodyne, the physics of single-sideband radio, and FM sidebands. Chapters end with 'challenge problems' and an appendix offers solutions, partial answers, and hints. Readers will come away with a new appreciation for the beauty of even the most useful mathematics.

"Mr. Nahin's fascinating historical guide to the science of how words are transformed into electricity and back again contains a lot of [mathematics]. Luckily, Mr. Nahin . . . is also a warm and infectiously enthusiastic guide in prose." ---Steven Poole, Wall Street Journal
