Included in this new, advanced Fifteenth Edition of the RADIO HANDBOOK are fresh chapters covering electronic computers, r.i. feedback amplifiers, and high fidelity techniques, plus greatly expanded chapters dealing with semi-conductors and special vacuum tube circuits. The other chapters of this Handbook have been thoroughly revised and brought up to date, touching briefly on those aspects in the industrial and military electronic fields that are of immediate interest to the electronic engineer and the radio amateur. The construction chapters have been completely re-edited. All new equipment described therein are of modern design, free of TVI problems and various unwanted parasitic oscillations. An attempt has been made not to duplicate items that have been featured in contemporary magazines. The transceiver makes its major bow in this edition of the RADIO HANDBOOK, and it is felt that this complete, inexpensive, compact "radio station" design will become more popular during the coming years.

An earlier edition of the above Radio Handbook, this has more of the feel of the ARRL handbook of 1940.  As you would expect the circuits in this older book use some older tubes, and no mention of semiconductors.  There is a section on "radio therapy", if you want to build your own diathermy machine!
