From the reviews of the Second Edition . "The book stresses how systems operate
and the rationale behind their design, rather than presenting rigorous analytical
formulations . [It provides] the practicality and breadth essential to mastering
the concepts of modern communications systems." -Telecommunication Journal In
this expanded new edition of his bestselling book, telephony expert John Bellamy
continues to provide telecommunications engineers with practical, comprehensive
coverage of all aspects of digital telephone systems, while addressing the rapid
changes the field has seen in recent years. Bellamy discusses the near-complete
conversion to digital technology in telephone networks worldwide, examines both
existing and emerging technologies, and explores the intricacies of carrying
voice over data networks as well as the use of telephone networks for carrying
data for Internet access. He emphasizes system design, implementation, and application,
but also correlates the practice to communications theory.
