Good coverage of the basics of communications

This book provides a good coverage of the basics of electronic communication omitting complex mathematics. General topics about communication are explained in a easely accessible way. The first half of the book is mainly about analog modulation schemes (AM,FM and PM). The second half of the book introduces transmission lines, radio-wave propagation, antennas, microwave devices, television, digiatl & data communication and fiber optics. If you want an in depth discussion about any topic of the second half of the book, this book is not the best choice. This is the book's major drawback, it tries to coverage as much as possible about communication lacking some in depth information most engineers are looking for. Overall a good introductory text for an undergraduate student, an electronics hobbiest or a radioamateur.
