This guide explains everything from tape manufacture to state-of-the-art recording techniques such as digital and laser-beam recording. It provides information on special and unusual head designs, biasing and erasing, and recording drive design. The latest advances are discussed in computer-controlled recording, home video recording, and low-noise electronic system design. The text should be of interest to engineers and technicians in the magnetic recording industry.

Review

`I've heard much about this book over the years and finally found a well-priced used copy right here on Amazon! It goes into great depth and provides the history as well as the math behind 75 years of magnetic recording. It's totally fascinating but also quite technical.'
Richard L. Hess, Glendale, CA, USA
