This comprehensive final report results from the only major United States Government investigation of the telephone industry. Its lengthier first part consists of 18 chapters filled with data in tabular and text form examining management and control, licensing, patents, research, engineering and standardization, rates, pricing and other facets of the Bell system. The second part reviews legal problems of telephone control and suggests legislative measures. This report remains essential to an understanding of the history and growth of the Bell system into one of America's major industrial giants.

Book Description
In 1986, the state of Nebraska completely discarded traditional utility regulation, deregulating rates and profits of its local telephone companies. The Nebraska experiment has become a benchmark for reassessing the role of state regulation in the future of telecommunications. Using comparative data from five midwestern states, Mueller shows how deregulation affected rates, investment, infrastructure modernization, and profits. He uncovers both positive and negative results. Mueller found established telephone companies to be basically conservative, not aggressive and expansionist, and concludes that new competition, not regulation or deregulation, is transforming the telecommunications industry.
