As the first full-length biography written about Dr. Tesla after his death in 1943, this book holds a special place in the Tesla canon. Originally published in 1944, it is a penetrating study of the life and mind of the "scientific superman"who dedicated his life to the task of designing and improving devices for the service of humankind. The book is the result of personal interviews and covers all aspects of Tesla's work from the true wireless to the disk turbine. 408 pp.
