Communications (New Technology),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product Description Explaining how ideas can be developed into useful technology through the application of science to everyday needs, this study examines the possibilities for technological advancement in the rapidly growing computerbased communications field. From School Library Journal Grade 48?Surveying recent and current technological developments, Communications covers such topics as CDROMs, computers, television, and virtual reality, while Space includes probes, supersonic jets, space shuttles, and more. Two or three paragraphs briefly summarize the technology, and then several captioned photographs offer examples of contemporary uses. The facts are timely and accurate, but few details are given. Readers learn what the COBE satellite does and why it's important, but not much about how it was developed or how it actually works. Problems with new advancements are noted, such as the lack of maneuverability of superjumbo jets. The fullcolor photographs are generally clear and attractive, and pages are relatively uncluttered, considering the variety of facts and illustrations per spread. Indexes are slightly frustrating, however, since they use subdivisions of general topics and no cross references; students must look under "television" to find "VCR" and "space shuttle" to find Challenger. Though not as exciting or informative as Gloria Skurzinski's "Your High Tech World" series (Bradbury), these books work well as basic introductions to their subjects.?Steven Engelfried, West Lynn Library, ORCopyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc.
