Nationality vs. ethnicity[edit]

"widely recognized as the father of nonlinear circuit theory"[edit]

Is there a better reference for this? Nonlinear circuit theory existed since the advent of analog computing and communication which predate Chua's birth. In addition the theory of semiconductor devices such as diodes and transistors is based on non-linear circuits and was developed in the 1940's (prior to Chua). It is true Chua co-wrote a standard text on non-linear circuit theory but I do not think this makes him the "father" of nonlinear circuit theory. The IEEE Global history reference appears to be a wiki and does not seem reliable.Blm19732008 (talk) 10:22, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
