Abstract :
A course for liberal arts students on the engineering and physics of radio is described. An historical presentation of the subject is given in the classroom. The course is suitable as part of the science requirement in university general education curricula and can serve as a model for how, using history, electrical engineering can be taught to students majoring in the liberal arts
