Transcription

Contents

Seifer follows the life of Nikola Tesla, the Serbian American Invention|inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, physicist, and futurist. He covers the high points of the inventor's life through his designs used in the modern alternating current system, experimentation with high frequency current and wireless power transmission, wireless remote control, X-ray imaging, and Tesla's "death ray". Seifer goes on to cover Tesla's downfall, attributing it to Tesla's megalomaniacal, neurotic, self-destructive tendencies, and Tesla's interactions with financier J. Pierpont Morgan.[1]

Seifer based his book largely on primary sourced documents including Tesla's writings and patents.[1] Also including papers of Tesla's in the Tesla archives in Yugoslavia as well as manuscripts in the United States. Seifer filed Freedom of Information Act requests to get documents from the FBI and other United States government agencies.[2]
