How Secrets Work by Professor A. M. Low is a fascinating early post war account explaining many of the scientific and technological advances developed during the Second World War. Written for the general reader, it explores topics including radar, submarines, jet propulsion, rocket weapons, the Bailey Bridge, proximity fuses, electronic gun sights, the atomic bomb and many other wartime innovations that later influenced civilian life. Richly illustrated with photographs and diagrams, this 1946 first edition is an excellent collectible for readers interested in military history, science, engineering and the history of technology.
