There are five billion people in the world and they live in all different corners of it. They live on the snow and ice of the Poles and in the tropical jungles on the equator. They have climbed the highest mountains and walked on the sea bed. Some of them have even left the earth and visited the moon.

The human species is the most numerous and the most powerful of all the animals on earth. How did this happen? In many ways, animals can do things better than we can. Dogs can smell and hear better than we can. Cats can see in the dark. Birds

fly thousands of miles away and return to the same place every year. But we are different. No other animal builds cathedrals, plays football, tells jokes, gets married, has prisons, writes symphonies, elects presidents, or goes to the moon.

There is one thing above all that makes people and 20 animals different. People love to talk-talk-talk. We are the great communicators! And we can communicate so many things in so many ways - with our faces, our hands, our bodies, and our voices. Most important of all, we can record what we say and think in writing, so that we can communicate through time. We have a sense of past and future, not just present.

We are the only species that can change the world, and we are the only species that can choose either to look after our world or to destroy it.

1. Is the human species the most numerous and the most powerful?

2. What is the difference between people and animals?

3. Who is the greatest communicator in the world?

Three Basic Developments of Electronics

Electronics has probably undergone more revolutionary steps than any other industry. There are three basic developments in electronics that have given birth to three completely new technological industries. The first large technological innovation was the introduction of radio-frequency energy. Microwaves alone offer unparalleled opportunities for communications to business and industry. The second of these was of course the transistor and the associated solid-state circuit based on semi­conductor technology. The third and latest technology is the laser. It is a light amplifying device having a broad range of applications. Lasers have potentialities for medical applications where the extremely narrow high intensity beam can be used for surgery or medical treatment.
