The Keep It Simple (KISS) philosophy is the primary focus of this book. It is written in very simple language with minimal math, as a compilation of helpful EMI troubleshooting hints. Its light-hearted tone is at odds with the extreme seriousness of most engineering reference works that become boring after a few pages. This text tells engineers what to do and how to do it. Only a basic knowledge of math, electronics, and a basic understanding of EMI/EMC are necessary to understand the concepts and circuits described. Once EMC troubleshooting is demystified, readers learn there are quick and simple techniques to solve complicated problems a key aspect of this book. Simple and inexpensive methods to resolve EMI issues are discussed to help generate unique ideas and methods for developing additional diagnostic tools and measurement procedures. An appendix on how to build probes is included. It can be a fun activity, even humorous at times with bizarre techniques (i.e., the sticky finger probe).

Nuclear EMP attack is part of the military doctrines, plans and exercises of Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran for a revolutionary new way of warfare against military forces and civilian critical infrastructures by cyber, sabotage, and EMP. Significantly, because EMP attack entails detonating a nuclear weapon at such high altitude that no blast or other prompt effects injurious to humans are delivered, only the EMP that immediately damages only electronics, potential adversaries do not appear to regard nuclear EMP attack as an act of nuclear warfare. Ignorance of the military doctrines of potential adversaries and a failure of U.S. strategic imagination, as noted in military writings of potentially hostile powers, is setting America up for an EMP Pearl Harbor. EMP is essentially an anti-technology weapon--and perhaps the perfect "silver bullet" to defeat and humble the high-tech military of the United States that is the basis for its claim to be "the world's only superpower."

If you are looking for a guide to discover the principles behind electromagnetic pulses, then keep reading... Electromagnetic pulses are created by nuclear explosions. North Korea is actively threatening to test nuclear bombs and releasing radiation into the environment. If North Korea tested a nuclear bomb near the US, the electromagnetic pulses could potentially stop all the electrical devices in the United States. The electromagnetic pulse produces a burst of radiation. Scientists strongly feel that if North Korea fires off a nuclear weapon, it will cause an electromagnetic pulse. The electromagnetic pulse could not only destroy electronic devices but could also wipe out a significant portion of the population in the United States in one blow. We need to be proactive and protect our homes with survival techniques, so we can survive the very real likelihood of these attacks. A sign that an area, region, or country is affected by EMP is when all electronic devices shut down at once. When there are many electromagnetic pulses occur at the same time, they can physically destroy a large number of computer devices, cell phones, and other devices due to the sudden buildup of magnetism. Power transformers would be impacted as well causing blackouts throughout the country, even in areas that weren't directly affected by the blast as they will be taken down because they are connected to the same grid. The severity of the nuclear explosion will depend on the height of where the bomb was dropped. The electromagnetic pulse can be of low frequency and can be of high ultraviolet wavelengths. The US military considers a detonated warhead of this type extremely hazardous. North Korea has threatened numerous times to detonate this type of warhead near the US. When detonated, this warhead could kill millions of people if done in the right place. It is known as HEMP or high-altitude electromagnetic pulse. In addition, the effects of HEMP on the earth could interact with the Earth's magnetic field, causing unknown damage in the long run.

This short monograph presents the theory of electromagnetic pulses in a simple and physical way. All pulses discussed are exact solutions of the Maxwell equations, and have finite energy, momentum and angular momentum. There are five chapters: on Fundamentals, Solutions of the Wave Equation, Electromagnetic Pulses, Angular Momentum, and Lorentz Transformations. Nine Appendices cover mathematical or associated aspects, such as chiral measures of electromagnetic fields. The subject matter is restricted to free-space classical electrodynamics, but contact is made with quantum theory in proofs that causal pulses are equivalent to superpositions of photons.

"Nuclear weapons, since their conception, have been the subject of secrecy. In the months after the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the American scientific establishment, the American government, and the American public all wrestled with what was called the "problem of secrecy," wondering not only whether secrecy was appropriate and effective as a means of controlling this new technology but also whether it was compatible with the country's core values. Out of a messy context of propaganda, confusion, spy scares, and the grave counsel of competing groups of scientists, what historian Alex Wellerstein calls a "new regime of secrecy" was put into place. It was unlike any other previous or since. Nuclear secrets were given their own unique legal designation in American law ("restricted data"), one that operates differently than all other forms of national security classification and exists to this day. Drawing on massive amounts of declassified files, including records released by the government for the first time at the author's request, Restricted Data is a narrative account of nuclear secrecy and the tensions and uncertainty that built as the Cold War continued. In the US, both science and democracy are pitted against nuclear secrecy, and this makes its history uniquely compelling and timely"--

Lew Rockwell: "Scholars like Garet Garrett, John T. Flynn, and Murray Rothbard have pointed out that a main way the State adds to its power and tyrannizes over the people is to whip up alleged threats from a foreign power. Given the threat, defenders of the State say, don't we need to take countermeasures, however high the cost? Those of us who grew up in the '50s and '60s remember vividly the "drop drills" that prepared schoolchildren for an impending nuclear attack. The government neglected to tell us that America was far better armed than the Soviets. The "threat" was concocted to justify a militarist policy and massive government spending. In this careful study, David Hathaway has given us a microstudy of the Orwellian State's technique to add to its power. On July 8, 1962, an atomic warhead was detonated in the Pacific. One purpose of the blast was to study the impact, if any, of ElectroMagnetic Pulse (EMP) effects. One incident is alleged to show such effects. Based on this incident, the government concluded that hostile powers could use EMPs to disable the electronic infrastructure of our country. Even after the Cold War ended, the government has continued to tout the threat posed by EMPs. Hathaway comments: "The alleged incident happened on the island of Oahu which is made up of the City and County of Honolulu. This incident has developed a cult following within the EMP science community. The incident allegedly involved blown fuses in a small number (less than 1%) of street light strings. It has been trotted out for decades as the single definitive proof of EMP effects on power grid and long-wire infrastructure." Hathaway isn't convinced. He presents a painstaking discussion of the incident, subsequent investigations, and the science behind EMP effects. He writes clearly about complicated science, and his conclusion is backed by abundant evidence: "EMP is a ridiculous notion; one that we are supposed to give up our money, our common sense, and our freedom to validate. From the state's perspective, there is always some area of life where people haven't yet developed the proper level of panic to make them tolerate the forced filling of state coffers in relation to that area. There is always something new to fear that the public can't quite grasp without the government to ratchet up its fears." David Hathaway deserves our gratitude for his excellent and timely account of a little-known propaganda campaign by the State." Llewellyn H.
