Download or read book Nikola Tesla written by Marc Seifer and published by Metascience Productions. This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nikola Tesla was one of the truly brilliant inventive minds of the last 150 years. After receiving his education and beginning his career in Europe, Tesla emigrated to the U.S. in 1884 and began working for his hero Thomas Edison, then for George Westinghouse. Tesla, the "electrical sorcerer", was best known for harnessing alternating current (AC) electricity -- which he demonstrated spectacularly at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair -- and for inventing the means to harness the awesome power of Niagara Falls to create and use electrical power. But he also experimented for almost fifty years on a project called the World Telegraphy System, which he believed would broadcast light, information, pictures and power around the globe -- the precursor to the wireless revolution we are experiencing today; he also was the real inventor of the radio, the lift-off helicopter-airplane, and laser and weaponry technology that would much later be associated with death rays and Star Wars technologies.

An immigrant from what is now Croatia, Tesla would move to America and go on to create groundbreaking inventions including some that would change the world. He even electrified visitors at the 1893 Chicago World s Fair with an amazing never-before-seen electrical light display. Despite his successes, Tesla would become largely forgotten over the remaining dozen years of his life as others got credit for his remarkable scientific contributions. But after his death, he found renewed fame as the subject of conspiracy theories and as a pop culture idol. Through this fascinating book, you ll come to know the dashing man that continues to capture imaginations today.

Download or read book Fixing Niagara Falls written by Daniel Macfarlane and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late nineteenth century, Niagara Falls has been heavily engineered to generate energy behind a flowing façade designed to appeal to tourists. Fixing Niagara Falls reveals the technological feats and cross-border politics that facilitated the transformation of one of the most important natural sites in North America. Daniel Macfarlane shows how this natural wonder is essentially a tap: huge tunnels around the reconfigured Falls channel the waters of the Niagara River, which ebb and flow according to the tourism calendar. This book offers a unique interdisciplinary and transborder perspective on how the Niagara landscape embodies the power of technology and nature.
