Book excerpt: This is a description of the possible uses of wireless radio connection. It was written by Archibald Montgomery Low (1888 – 1956) who has been called the "father of radio guidance systems" due to his pioneering work on planes, torpedoes, boats and guided rockets. The book was published when even radio itself was a novelty. Low looks at the use of radio in several different fields including that of war. Some of his words seem quite prophetic, for example " It will not be long before travelers by air, land, and water, will be no longer alone That they will be able to converse with their homes may seem no advantage, but that they can remain in touch with the rest of mankind is most obviously desirable" Low was a very clever man in his time, (he developed the first powered drone aircraft).but he did not become as famous as he might have deserved because he was not widely liked and never held a professorship, though he called himself 'professor'.
