Sinopsis

This book examines Tesla's complete life and legacy, including his astonishing 700 patents and the long-secret papers he kept at his side when he died. Engineers, entrepreneurs and academics will find it invaluable not only for the never-before-published interviews and archives, but also for the creative principles that visionaries like Larry Page and Elon Musk have used to build iconic brands and ground-breaking inventions. The book also reveals why the government and business leaders wanted to shut down Tesla's bold experiments and how hundreds of his ideas are now being implemented globally, including clean power, robotics, alternating current motors and wireless transmission of power and information.
