Wiley Survey of Instrumentation and MeasurementIn-depth coverage of instrumentation and measurement from the Wiley Encyclopedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering The Wiley Survey of Instrumentation and Measurement features 97 articles selected from the Wiley Encyclopedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, the one truly indispensable reference for electrical engineers. Together, these articles provide authoritative coverage of the important topic of instrumentation and measurement. This collection also, for the first time, makes this information available to those who do not have access to the full 24-volume encyclopedia. The entire encyclopedia is available online-visit www.interscience.wiley.com/EEEE for more details. Articles are grouped under sections devoted to the major topics in instrumentation and measurement, including: * Sensors and transducers * Signal conditioning * General-purpose instrumentation and measurement * Electrical variables * Electromagnetic variables * Mechanical variables * Time, frequency, and phase * Noise and distortion * Power and energy * Instrumentation for chemistry and physics * Interferometers and spectrometers * Microscopy * Data acquisition and recording * Testing methods The articles collected here provide broad coverage of this important subject and make the Wiley Survey of Instrumentation and Measurement a vital resource for researchers and practitioners alike |

Typographical Error - "Survey of instruments and measurements" by Stephen A. Dyer, Page 427, ISBN: 0-471-39484-X. Recently, I purchased a microwave Rotary (Vane) Attenuator.
On the equipment tally plate is engraved: ELLIOTT. SERIAL No. 755. PAT. No. 691939 OTHERS PENDING. ROTARY ATTENUATOR TYPE B 533. ELLIOTT BROS(LONDON) Ltd., CENTURY WORKS, LONDON SE13 . ENGLAND.
There is very little information on the Internet about this (partly?) British Invention; and as history remembers only what is written, I thought it necessary to include the corrections of the typographical error found in this very informative book,

"Rotary-Vane Attenuator. The rotary-vane attenuator was invented in the early 1950's by E. A. N. Whitebread (Elliot H. Brothers, London) and A. E. Bowen (Bell Telephone Laboratories)."
The name should be Whitehead, and the company should be ELLIOTT.
I enclose British Patent (as an attachment) and information (below) to verify my statement.
