Perhaps I've been spoiled by modern pop science writing, but this felt a lot more like a term paper - well-researched and meticulously cited, but not especially compelling. I'll have to pick up a more recent biography of this complicated fellow at some point. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
In 1899, Nikola Tesla, a brilliant man who was instrumental in developing the electrical empire that shapes our world of today, lived and conducted research in Colorado Springs. Tesla came to the Pikes Peak region to conduct different experiments, primarily to fi nd a way to transmit electrical power without the use of wires. The high, dry climate was ideal for his work. The tale of this exceptional scientist and unusual man comes to life in Inez Hunt and Wanetta Draper¿s book Lightning In His Hand: The Life Story of Nikola Tesla. The story by Hunt and Draper will appeal not only to readers interested in the growth of electrical power in the 19th and early 20th century, but for the study of an eccentric, visionary scientist who found Colorado Springs a perfect lab for his experiments.
