  • Abstract
    WE ARE LIVING in the world of electronics and atomic energy, the jet airplane, the guided missile, the earth satellite, the digital computer, the automatic factory, and, unfortunately, the hydrogen bomb. I have set myself the task of talking about that part of this amazing world which belongs to the electrical engineer. I would like to start by drawing a picture of the electrical engineer´s world of today as I see it and to finish by drawing some very general conclusions as to the preparation a young electrical engineer should have before he is launched on his career in this world.
