Abstract:"Everybody knows that Thomas Edison devised electric light, that Guglielmo Marconi thought up radio and George Westinghouse built the world's first hydro-electric power station. Everybody knows these 'facts' but they are wrong. One man alone dreamt up these things: Nikola Tesla, a Serbian-American scientist, who also invented inter alia the fluorescent light, seismology and a worldwide data communication network which prefigured the internet. He is without doubt this century's greatest unsung scientific hero."--Back cover
