My Inventions - The Autobiography of Nikola Tesla
https://s31.postimg.org/gbtid9osr/41_PTW...03_200.jpg
Serbian inventor NIKOLA TESLA was a revolutionary scientist who forever changed the scientific fields of electricity and magnetism. Tesla's greatest invention, A/C current, powers almost all of the technological wonders in the world today, from home heating to computers to high-tech robotics.
His discoveries gave mankind the television. And his dream of wireless communication came to pass in both the radio and eventually the cell phone. Yet his story remains widely unknown. History buffs, science enthusiasts, backyard inventors, and anyone who has ever dared to dream big will find the life of Nikola Tesla, written in his own words, engaging, informative, and humorous in its eccentricity.
REvIEW:
"Everyone should read this book! Tesla is not only a great inventor, he is also one of the greatest thinkers and an amazing writer.
"The pressure of occupation and the incessant stream of impressions pouring into our consciousness thru all the gateways of knowledge make modern existence hazardous in many ways."
Almost a century later...does it ring a bell?
Samantha Hunt fabulously explained it in a nut-shell, "It was difficult for a vanilla American public, reeling from war, to lionize a foreign eccentric..." An eccentric that "is responsible for our modern electrical system," without which we wouldn't even be able to surf the net, let alone do other insignificant things like watching TV, making a phone-call...oops, he's responsible for the phone and radio, too!
And, Mr. Kevin Kelly, if by "please don't read this book if you wish to remain normal" you consider our every day "normalcy" that turns us into idiots on a regular basis then, by all means, I salute you!"
