book
explains
how
to
utilize
closed-circuit
television
fully
and
imaginatively,
even
with
limited
resources.
This
is
achieved
through
understanding
the
capabilities
of
the
equipment
and
concentrating
on
the
techniques
that
give
the
best
results
with
the
least
fuss.
How
television
can
be
used
to
greater
effect
by
making
use
of
films,
slides
and
audio-tape
is
also
emphasized.
CCTV
has
many
applications,
from
anatomy
in
the
autopsy
room
to
a
production
line
in
a
factory,
as
well
as
established
uses
in
education.
Points
are
illustrated
with
numerous
photos.'
