Excerpt from Signalling Through Space Without Wires: Being a Description of the Work of Hertz His Successors

This is the work of Hertz which is best known, the work which brought him immediate fame. It is not always that public notice is so well justified. The popular instinct is generous and trustful, and it is apt to be misled. The scientific eminence accorded to a few energetic persons by popular estimate is more or less amusing to those working on the same lines. In the case of Hertz no such mistake has been made. His name is not over well-known, and his work is immensely greater in every way than that of several who have made more noise.

His best known discovery is by no means his only one, and no less than eighteen Papers were contributed to German periodicals by him, in addition to the papers incorporated in his now well-known book on electric waves.

In closing these introductory and personal remarks, I should like to say that the enthusiastic admiration for Hertz's Spirit and character felt and expressed by students and workers who came into contact with him is not easily to be exaggerated. Never was a man more painfully 'anxious to avoid wounding the susceptibilities of others; and he was accustomed to deprecate the prominence given to him by speakers and writers in this country, lest it might seem to exalt him unduly above other and older workers among his own sensitive countrymen.

Paperback. Condici�n: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the groundbreaking work of Heinrich Hertz, a physicist whose discoveries revolutionized our understanding of electricity and its relationship to light. The author, a prominent scientist of his time, provides a comprehensive account of Hertz's experiments and their implications, placing them within the broader context of 19th-century scientific thought. The book delves into the nature of electric waves, their ability to travel through space without wires, and the potential applications for communication and beyond. Hertz's discoveries, the author argues, laid the groundwork for the development of wireless telegraphy, and the book highlights the significance of these early experiments in shaping the future of communication technology.
