Product Description
Nikola Tesla has been called the most important man of the twentieth century. Certainly he contributed more to the field of electricity, radio, and television than any other person living or dead. Ultimately he died alone and impoverished having driven all of his friends away through his neurotic and eccentric behavior. Tesla was never able to fit into the world that he found himself in. This autobiography, originally serialized in Electrical Experimenter, is an intensely fascinating glimpse into the mind of a genius, his inventions, and the magical world in which he lived.

 A good start to learning about Tesla November 11, 2008
Robert Medford Jr. (Chattanooga. TN)

I never knew about Tesla until this year. I never knew how much his work affected my everyday living. I wish they would've let him go ahead with the free energy towers worldwide, it would be a different planet now.
He might have moved us into a Type I civilization by now. Type I is using all the power of the sun. Right now we use less than 5% of it which makes us a Type 0 because we still use plants and minerals for fuel.
The Book was a great read and it moved me into The Tesla Papers next.
It's a good starting point.

This is a great book which surfaces Tesla's biography, image of himself and of his internal mental processes. The way Tesla outlines his own internal thought processes and psychology is deeply interesting. I think anyone who aspires to be an inventory would be inspired by reading this book. Tesla's explanation of how he ran experiments in his mind without needing any interfering apparatus is inspiring to those who enjoy theorizing and exploring reality.
My Inventions is an amazing short autobiography. December 16, 2008

Short but sweet! This book does not go into great detail. Though it is an insight to Nikola Tesla's idea and young life. A must to read if wondering about Electrical Engineering or the development of Alternating Current.

Very good book! It has an interesting, informative yet brief introduction. If your well read on Tesla, then it is probably something you can skip over however. Tesla himself conveys his thoughts very well. I reccomend this to anyone who is interested in Tesla or electronics.
A fantastic insight into a true genius August 10, 2008
Katherine Mingin (Australia)
Even though this is a very short book and only deals with the first half of Tesla's life, it still provides some fantastic insights into the life of a genius. Written by Tesla after some very traumatic experiences in his life, he still comes through as a very generous and forgiving man. When you read his version of the troubles with J.P.Morgan, you realise the myths that have accumulated around Tesla. Great read!!!
