MICROWAVE OVENS: AN INTRODUCTION
Microwave ovens have infiltrated our lives to such an extent that life without them has become impossible. The ability of a microwave oven to quickly and safely cook food appeals to all of us. But how safe is it? This series of articles will study and analyze the microwave oven and its working in detail and try to give you an orientation as to what that little box on your kitchen counter really is. The first article is about the origins of the microwave oven and its components.
