Nikola Tesla

Part philosophical ponderings on humanity's relationship to the universe, part scientific extrapolation on what technological advancement might bring to that understanding, this long essay, first published in Century Illustrated Magazine in June 1900, is yet another example of the genius of Serbian inventor NIKOLA TESLA (1857-1943), the revolutionary scientist who forever changed the scientific fields of electricity and magnetism.

In the following I shall consider three exceptionally interesting errors in the interpretation and application of physical phenomena which have for years dominated the minds of experts and men of science. 1. The Illusion of the Axial Rotation of the Moon. 2. The Fallacy of Franklin's Pointed Lightning-Rod. 3. The Singular Misconception of the Wireless. Tesla is well known for his inventions, speeches and articles, many of which are readily available....

"My Inventions" is a candid and illuminating autobiography of Nikola Tesla, one of the most important technological innovators of the modern industrial age. Famous for the radio, robotics, and wireless energy, Tesla quickly gained international notoriety for his pioneering inventions as much for his eccentric life. Perhaps no one in his day more thoroughly embodied the archetype of the "mad scientist". This firsthand account reveals the fascinating...

Nikola Tesla was a genius who revolutionized how the world looks at electricity. During college, his professors explained that it was impossible to design an engine without commutators or brushes. Tesla was unconvinced that such was necessary or even particularly desirable. It was then that Tesla began his work on the rotating field motor that ultimately gave birth to the modern age. In May of 1888, Tesla delivered his lecture "A New System of Alternating...

En su autobiografía, Nikola Tesla (1856-1943), uno de los inventores más importantes del siglo XX, retrata su trayectoria desde la infancia en Croacia hasta su establecimiento y logros en los Estados Unidos. Tesla cuenta su vida desde la infancia, pasando por sus proyectos y también explica cómo funcionaba su proceso creativo, que era tan complejo y único que le permitía desarrollar, operar y modificar sus inventos solo con su imaginación....

Además de inventar motores y turbinas, soñar con un mundo de naves teledirigidas y torres inalámbricas, levantar grandes laboratorios mágicos de los que salían relámpagos y tormentas artificiales y hasta diseñar aparatos domésticos, Nikola Tesla escribió mucho. Cartas a la familia, narrando sus éxitos y planes; cartas a sus jefes y patronos, contando sus proyectos y sueños; cartas a los amigos, cartas a los periódicos, cartas con quejas,...

Nikola Tesla was a genius, who revolutionized how the world looks at electricity. "For ages this idea [that each of us is only part of a whole] has been proclaimed in the consummately wise teachings of religion, probably not alone as a means of insuring peace and harmony among men, but as a deeply founded truth. The Buddhist expresses it in one way, the Christian in another, but both say the same: We are all one."
