Radio was not invented by any one particular person. It developed through advances in science and technology over a period of several hundred years, across several countries, and many brilliant minds were involved. In 1267 the English philosopher and scientist Roger Bacon wrote of the possibility of using electricity for communications (he was promptly imprisoned for dealing in black magic). In 1672 Germany’s Otto von Guericke made a sulphur ball that, when rotated and rubbed, produced electricity, rather like a modern generator. [download]
