Product Description By the U.S. Navy (1951). First came the vacuum tube, then the transistor, right? Not really. In between there is another "lost" entity. Electronics engineers of the 1950's believed the rugged little magnetic amplifier was going to replace the less reliable vacuum tube in all its functions up to a megacycle. Originating in the USA but adopted and developed by the Nazis for the V2 missile, the mag amp after WWII found a clique of boosters among U.S. electronics engineers. Still evident in some regulators, the mag amp can also magnify, modulate, switch, invert, convert, phase shift, multiply, and even compute. It requires zero maintenance and can handle thousands of amperes. Modulate your Tesla coil with a mag amp. 43 illustrations. Not a reprint. Completely reset and redesigned.A Magnetic Amplifier Bibliography is published separately by High Voltage Press.

Warning: This Item Is A Rip-off!! 04 September, 2008 At first I was very excited to have found this 'book', as it aligns with my interest in alternative energy sources using magnetism. Unfortunately my initial enthusiasm quickly waned when I opened the box and discovered that the product consists of a dozen or so photocopied pages folded in half and stapled. The contents were little more than old grainy b&w images and several rudimentary schematics. Please DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY on this item...you will be very disappointed. This is NOT a published book by anyone's definition, and the information contained therein can likely be found at no cost elsewhere on the web.
