‘'I don't care that they stole my idea...I care that they don't have any of their own.'' Nikola Tesla
The story of the man who invented the future. The man who gave us progress, evolution, new life. The son of Serbian blood, the offspring of a priest and an extraordinary woman who loved making tools and stories of chivalry and adventure. The young boy who experienced a family tragedy, a harsh illness. The student who travelled Europe in search of knowledge and inspiration. The scientist who was betrayed by those who weren't fit to so much as look at him. His mind changed the world forever.
Do your children and your students a favour and give them this book as a gift. Let us for once appreciate the ones who brought light into the darkness.
