Technology is always moving forward. But just because something is the latest doesn't mean it's the greatest. Whether you want to hook up an old rotary dial landline or check out the designs of old cell phones, retro gear can give you a whole new way of looking at phones. Readers will discover how telephones were invented, how they have changed over time, and where they are going tomorrow. They will also learn how this tech has affected society and how they can get hands-on with retro tech themselves. Includes glossary, bibliography, and other resources.
