Abstract
SEVEN years ago Prof. Toshinojo Mizuno, of the Imperial University of Kyoto, published a popular work on wireless telegraphy and telephony. At that time it was difficult to transmit messages more than two hundred miles. The present volume is in the main a theoretical consideration of the same subject, and is intended for the use of students at the university. With the exception of the numerous formulæ and equations which suggest a treatise on higher mathematics, the fact that the text is in Chinese idiographs, places this work beyond the reach of European students. The references to Maxwell and Hertz in the early chapters indicate that the author has started on good foundations. Following these, references are made to the work of many investigators in England, Germany, Italy, and other European countries.
