Signals Volume VII: Radio Countermeasures

This is a story of acronyms and codewords: "X-Gerät," "Knickebein," "Y-Gerät," and of the electronic warfare between the Germans and the UK during World War Two. The strength of the book lies in its detailed description of the problems and the solutions, and again the codewords flow: "tinsel," "Mandrel," "carpet" and many others. The electronic war was one that was fought by the scientific staffs of the respective combatants, and this book tells it as it was. Highly recommended. With 18 appendices and 14 diagrams.
