    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

              Come on Sas, you're not exactly Paul Erdos, are you? An enigmatic "I'm addicted to mathematics in any shape or form." just makes you sound like a pretentious onanist.

                      That Fred Terman was a real switched on dude.

                      The black & gold McGraw Hill books are classics.

                      Lovely paper, look well on the bookshelf.

                      Some of them are interesting to read.

                      Starting with

                      The oscillation valve, the elementary principles of its application to wireless telegraphy : Bangay, Raymond Dorrington, 1883- : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive

                      1919.
                      I only recently weeded out a load of them, including the classic The Cathode Ray Tube And Its Uses. Sorry.
