Nikola Tesla and the electrical future

Summary: A new biography of electrical pioneer Nikola Tesla, one of the most enigmatic and influential figures in the history of science. Tesla was a bundle of contradictions - a consummate showman and a private recluse; a man of science addicted to self-promotion; a prolific inventor of technologies that made other people's fortunes. More than just a biography of Tesla, this book takes the inventor as its guide and follows him through the cut-throat entrepreneurial culture of late Victorian and Edwardian electrical invention.
