Reviews

“One of a few unconventional, and much needed, contributions to the literature on radio spectrum. It is an interdisciplinary piece of work that distances itself from many publications where the radio spectrum is often confined to a merely technical and economic discourse.”

Massaro, M. (2020), “Book Details: Frequencies. International spectrum policy”, Digital Policy, Regulation and Governance, Vol. 22 No. 5/6, pp. 455-458.

“Frequencies offers challenges to established ways of thinking.”

Youell, T. (June 10, 2020). New collection of essays throws light on spectrum management around the world Policy Tracker.
