Newton's Telecom Dictionary
Author: Harry Newton

Why This Dictionary? Why? Because it's impossible to keep up. Newton adds, changes, updates and expands over 100 definitions a week. No other industry changes as fast. No other industry has more confusing terms. If you're NEW or OLD to this industry, you'll use this dictionary. It not only defines the terms and the acronyms. It tells you what th... more »e term is, how it works, how you use it, what its business benefits are and how it fits into the greater scheme of things. This is not a common dictionary. It's far closer to an encyclopedia. Newton's Telecom Dictionary is unlike any other technical reference you've ever read. First, it assumes that you, the reader, are not technical. Second, it assumes you want to fully understand the term in business terms. So not only defines the term, but it provides "Buying Checklists," replete with warnings. Salesmen use this book to understand their product's benefits. Users use this book to get a handle on conflicting technologies. Bosses use this dictionary to get more than enough info to be dangerous. Consultants use this book to glean higher fees. And lawyers actually use this book in court. (God help our legal system!) We used to publish a new edition of this dictionary every two years. Now we publish a new edition every year. It's become that hectic. Our guarantee: We keep this dictionary up to date. Whenever you order, you'll always get the latest edition - irrespective of what the ad or write up says. This dictionary covers every form of telecommunications - from digital lines in all their forms to the Internet in all its forms. You'll find detailed definitions - some as long as four pages (mini-essays) - on every form of transmission and switching technology out. You'll find all the new "hot" areas - computer telephony, IP Telephony, Windows Telephony and all the new standards that are, thankfully, opening telecommunications to standards-based systems. Every new telecom company from Intel to Microsoft to Novell, from Apple to National Semiconductor, from IBM to Motorola, from Natural MicroSystems to Dialogic, from Sun to Qwest, uses this dictionary for training. All the traditional telecom companies, including AT&T, MCI, Sprint, Lucent, Nortel (Northern Telecom), Bell Atlantic, Rockwell, BellSouth, Ericsson and GTE, have contributed their company's definitions. As a result, Newton's Telecom Dictionary has truly become an industry-standard dictionary. The dictionary has been very favorably reviewed in the magazines. PC Magazine called it an "essential resource." Business Week says "mystified by terms such as pink noise, pure aloha, Gorizont? Newton can help." After 13 editions and now in its 14th edition, Newton's Telecom Dictionary remains the Biggest-Selling Telecom Dictionary/ Encyclopedia in the world!
