by Nikola Tesla (Author)
Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) was a prophet of the electronic age. His research laid much of the foundations of modern electrical and communication systems, and impressive achievements include the development of the AC electrical system, radio, Tesla coil transformer, cordless transmission and fluorescent lighting. Tesla's research was so revolutionary that many of their contemporaries did not understand them and their innovations are unfairly attributed to other scientists. The visionary scientist opens up in this volume, originally published as a series of six articles in Electrical Experimenter magazine. Tesla recounts his childhood in Croatia, his education and work in Europe, his collaboration with Thomas Edison and his subsequent investigations. Written with wit and verve, these memoirs offer a fascinating insight into one of the great minds of modern science.
