The people behind the dictionary

Newton's Telecom Dictionary -- 23nd Edition. New for 2007

Amazon readers gave it ---- its highest rating.
Over 741,000 copies have been sold. That's a huge number.

Every large and small telecom company gives it to their employees to help them understand their increasingly complex world. The reason? Newton and his editors write this dictionary in non-technical business language. Newton believes that anyone in business ought to be able to understand complex technical terms, and figure their significance. Newton's objective is to explain what the technology means, what it does, what its benefits are, and what its pitfalls are.

Newton’s Telecom Dictionary is now in its 23nd edition. At 1,056 pages, it defines 23,500 terms, making it the biggest telecom dictionary in the world and one of the largest technical/business dictionaries.
