The Inventions, Researches and Writings of Nikola Tesla is the
definitive record of the pioneering work of one of the modern
world's most groundbreaking inventors. During the early twentieth
century, Tesla blazed the trail that electrical technology followed
for decades afterward. Although he pioneered inventions like
alternating current (AC), radio, wireless transmission, and X-rays,
and worked with innovators like George Westinghouse and Thomas
Edison, the once-celebrated Tesla was later largely forgotten by
history. This beautiful leatherbound edition brings together many
of the findings and theories that made this genius famous (and to
some, infamous), showing not only the scope of Nikola Tesla's
theories and inventions, but allowing contemporary readers to
experience the visionary range of his thinking. In addition to its
many detailed reproductions of Tesla's patents and inventions, this
highly collectible book includes dozens of thought-provoking
lectures and articles. The Inventions, Researches and Writings of
Nikola Tesla affords a rare glimpse of a true genius at work.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
During the early twentieth century, the eccentric and brilliant
inventor Nikola Tesla blazed the path that electrical development
followed for many years to come. This fascinating illustrated
record of Tesla's pioneering work gathers many of his most famous
findings and theories, allowing contemporary readers to experience
the amazing range of his thinking. It includes lectures, articles,
and discussions--particularly those bearing on polyphase motors and
the effects obtained with currents of high potential and high
frequency--and gives us a rare glimpse of a genius at work.
