스탠포드, MIT 교수로 지내던 Terman이 지은 유명한 책 Radio Engineering을 아실겁니다.
전에도 소개하고 그랬죠.
He returned to Stanford in 1925 as a member of the engineering faculty. From 1925 to 1941 Terman designed a course of study and research in electronics at Stanford that focused on work with vacuum tubes, circuits, and instrumentation. He hired Charles Litton and Karl Spangenberg, a student of William Littell Everitt. Together they established a vacuum tube laboratory.[3] He also wrote Radio Engineering (first edition in 1932; second edition, much improved, in 1937; third edition in 1947 with added coverage of new technologies developed during World War II; fourth edition in 1955 with a new title, Electronic and Radio Engineering), one of the most important books on electrical and radio engineering, and to this day a good reference on those subjects. Terman's students at Stanford included Oswald Garrison Villard, Jr., Russell and Sigurd Varian, William Hewlett, and David Packard.[4] He encouraged his students to form their own companies and personally invested in many of them, resulting in firms such as Litton Industries, Varian Associates, and Hewlett-Packard.[5] Terman was president of the Institute of Radio Engineers in 1941.[6]

우리나라에서도 60년대 가난한 시기에 미국에 유학을 갔다 온 분이 재단의 기금을 후원받아서..
'고주파 공학'이란 이름으로 번역해서 출간했죠.
까다로운 장문의 문장도 원서와 대조를 해 보니.. 번역을 잘 했더군요.
다만 잊혀져서 도서관에서 잠을 자고 있을 뿐이죠..
저도 얼마전 대학교에서 나온 1967년도 책을 한권 소장 하고 있는데..
기초 공학도 없는 나라에서. 관련 서적도 모두 사라지고 있네요...
외국은 아직도 버젓이 25만원에서 12만원선인데
우리는 고물상 저울대에서 kg당 200원에 파쇄기에 들어가는
미래로 가는 우주선을 옆바꿔 먹는 것같아 여간 씁쓸하지 않네요.
