Book reviews - Continous transactions in open waveguides

This monograph is devoted to the investigation of surface wave propagation along guides with inhomogeneous sections; where the guide parameters vary gradually in the direction of propagation. Practical cases of continuous transitions are, for instance, the launching of surface waves on a single wireline and surface wave antennas. The material presented in this monograph is in essence is done by the work of the author and his associates which was published in Russia during the years 1960 to 1965.
