Titles in Collection & Description
Discover the extraordinary life and inventions of Nikola Tesla with Biographic: Tesla, an electrifying visual biography from the innovative Great Lives in Graphic Form series. Combining fascinating facts and figures with colourful infographics, this book offers a fresh and entertaining way to explore the scientist and inventor behind some of the technologies that transformed the modern world.
Nikola Tesla (1856–1943) was an engineer, inventor and visionary whose work was instrumental in the development of alternating-current (AC) electricity and wireless communications. His ideas and inventions helped shape technologies that continue to influence everyday life.
But there is much more to Tesla than his scientific achievements.
Biographic: Tesla presents 50 defining facts, dates, thoughts, habits and achievements from his extraordinary life in vivid visual snapshots. Discover that Tesla was born during a lightning storm, and that when he first arrived in the United States, he reportedly had just 4 cents, some of his own poems and a design for a flying machine.
Tesla spoke eight languages and held around 300 patents for his inventions. The book also explores his more extraordinary claims, including his assertion that he had developed a "death ray" capable of destroying thousands of aircraft from hundreds of miles away.
Through engaging infographics and fascinating facts, this book reveals the visionary mind, unusual personality and remarkable achievements behind Tesla's scientific legacy.
