"Radio broadcasting added a totally new dimension to modern communication by bringing the outside world into the individual home. The history of radio, however, was far more complex than the history of previous media breakthroughs. The broadcasting system tied together a bundle of technological and scientific threads that had been dangling for a generation."
-- Daniel J. Czitrom,
"The Ethereal Hearth:
American Radio from Wireless through Broadcasting,"
Media and the American Mind,
(Chapel Hill, NC: Univ. of North Carolina Press), 1982, p. 60
