The book includes contemporary accounts from prominent scientists along with Reis' own description of his telephone. It also includes an analysis of later 'telephone' inventions in light of Reis' work and a detailed comparison of the transmitters and receivers used in Reis' telephones with those used in more modern telephones. This book is the result of the author's extensive research into contemporary documents and the testimony of surviving contemporaries of Philipp Reis and sheds new light on the invention of this revolutionary device.
