"Excellent narration of the events during and after Tesla's life. Consolidates, corrects, and explains many details found in other Tesla biographies as well, but includes more insights through interviews and connections to Tesla's descendants."
"From robots to radar to wireless, Tesla was a leader in electronics. With the Tesla car hitting the road and wireless power on the way, Tesla's story is still very relevant."
"Once anyone finds out about Tesla, it becomes necessary to know more. Many biographies of varying quality have been written. This is the best by far. Marc Seifer, a professional graphoanalyst, managed to gain access to original correspondence as his source material. He integrated this with thorough research. This provides factual information about many of Tesla's inventions, along with the real reasons why some of his work never became part of our lives to the extent that AC electricity and radio did."
"tesla is one of those other-worldly people with ideas so far ahead of their time, that you can't help but be fascinated. I guess my new rule on choosing idols of other-worldly character is if they can be played by David Bowie in a movie or not (see The Prestige)."
