Description
Known as the father of modern electricity, Nikola Tesla's work transformed the world. The scientist and engineer registered more than 700 patents, from X-ray to radar, to the Tesla Coil, radio, and remote control. This illustrated biography, with rare and beautifully reproduced documents and photographs, follows the development of Tesla's key theories and inventions, shining a light on an eccentric man who, ultimately, led a life of solitude and penury despite contributing so much to modern civilization.
