Description: Tesla by Richard Munson Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Though Teslas inventions transformed our world, his true originality is shown in the visionary ambitions he failed to achieve. Publisher Description Nikola Tesla, a Serbian-American, invented the radio, the induction motor, the neon lamp and the remote control. His breakthrough came in alternating current, which pitted him against Thomas Edisons direct current empire and bitter patent battles ensued. But Teslas technology was superior and he prevailed. He had no business sense, could not capitalise on this success and his most advanced ideas were unrecognised for decades. Teslas personal life was magnificently bizarre. Strikingly handsome, he was germophobic and never shook hands. He required nine napkins when he sat down to dinner. In later years he ate only white food and conversed with the pigeons in Bryant Park. This authoritative and highly readable biography takes account of all phases of this remarkable life. Author Biography Richard Munson is an author and clean-energy advocate. His previous books include Tesla: Inventor of the Modern.
