The "bible" for those wishing to understand Secondary Radar
Starting with a brief precis of the history of radar, this book concentrates on the principles of Secondary Radar, explaining its genesis during the Second World War, and its subsequent development as a significant feature of modern air travel.
This is followed by a comprehensive description of how Secondary Radar functions. It is clearly written by an author who demonstrates an in-depth knowledge of his subject, but is aimed at a technical readership and therefore expects the reader to already have a basic understanding of the principles involved. For anyone wishing to work in the field, it could almost be considered an essential textbook.
Nevertheless, it is clearly written so that an interested layman would grasp the principles, without necessarily understanding the technical detail.
