The book is divided into nine chapters, as follows: (1) Global Telecommunications (focuses on the demand for investment in telecommunications and the advent of satellite communications); (2) Telecommunications Management (presents information on bridging the telecommunications gap, the increasing need for computer based network management systems, and maintaining telecommunications networks); (3) Telecommunications Equipment (acquaints the reader with fiber optic lines, copper cables, intercoms, and other products); (4) Rural Communications (supplies information on developing rural telecommunication networks); (5) Mobile Communications (contains the recent technological achievements in the field); (6) Digitisation and Information Technology (explains recent advances in digital networking and information technology systems); (7) Power (discusses the importance of an uninterruptible power supply); (8) Satellites (examines the progress in satellite communications); and (9) Broadcasting (offers information about several aspects of broadcasting). Advertiser information is presented, including a chart correlating items of equipment with 120 companies. (MS)
