About this audiobook
Nikola Tesla was a Serbian-American innovator, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, and futurist who helped establish the contemporary rotating present (AC) electrical energy delivery system.
Tesla, who was born and raised in the Austrian Empire, studied engineering and physics without getting a grade in the 1870s and acquired useful experience in the early 1880s operating in telephone and at Continental Edison in the nascent electrical power business. He relocated to the USA in the year 1884 and ended up being a naturalized person. Before setting out on his own, he worked for a brief time at the Edison Device Works in N.Y. City. Tesla developed labs and business in New York to develop a range of electrical and mechanical gadgets with the support of partners to fund and promote his ideas. His rotating present (AC) induction motor and associated polyphase AC developments were accredited by Westinghouse Electric in the year 1888 and were the foundation of the polyphase system that firm consequently advertised.
Let’s learn more about this nutty professor, this obsessed genius who was way ahead of his time.
