Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent biography!
After reading this book, I truly feel like I have gotten to know Tesla on a personal level. I feel the author does a superb job of conveying Tesla's personal side, as well as his many unbelievable professional achievements. The author combines many stories of his personal life with how these led to his brilliant inventions and does it in such a way that I could not help but to admire Tesla's unyielding devotion to his work. Few people are as committed to anything as this great man was! Although ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good history of Tesla
Found this to be an excellent review of his life, and what he had gone through. The book is very readable, and does not put you to sleep like others. It does not go into details on his inventions, but does mention many of them, and the battles he had to go through with others at that time, and how most of his work was ahead of his time, and disregarded at that time.
Well worth the price.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Interesting depiction of Tesla's Life, yet not fully satifying
Cheney provides a lot of in depth information about Tesla's personal life, which at times is interesting.

I'm not sure her educational background, ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Electrifying Read!
For some odd reason, there are not very many books out there on Tesla. This one is all it takes.

The way he could visualize an invention with such focus that he could even make changes to it based on how he saw it operating in his mind, without ever fabricating an actual model, was pretty wild. Some of the concepts he was working on almost 100 years ago still cannot be duplicated. Too bad he couldn't channel some of that genius toward his finances.

The book has a good mix of ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Absolutely mind-boggling
I found this book to be absolutely mind-boggling. It is incredible that one man could be a pioneer in so many separate fields of technology. Moreover, it is incredible that one man can be traced back to be the originator of practically all of our global power and information infrastrucure- yet he benefitted so little for it in terms of either credit or wealth.

Nikola Tesla was the single genius behind the the entire modern polyphase and single phase system for generating, transmitting, and utilizing ... Read More
