Abstract :
THE SELECTION of an Edison Medalist forces a group of people to stop and assess the accomplishments of those who have contributed to the progress of the electrical industry. This is good, because, with the tempo at which everyone moves today, we are inclined to take much for granted. Only by periodical assessments do we appreciate the accomplishments of many, and perform the difficult task of selecting one.
