Authored by Nikola Tesla Consultant editor Timothy Green Beckley, William Kern NIKOLA TESLA - A WIZARD OUT OF TIME THIS WORK IS FOR THE SERIOUS COLLECTOR WHO WISH TO OWN RARE COPIES OF THIS "MIRACLE MAN'S" MOST IMPORTANT PATENTS AND INVENTIONS During his lifetime Nikola Tesla was issued several hundred patents from over 25 countries. And while chosen to share the 1912 Nobel Prize with Thomas Edison, Tesla simply ripped up his royalty contracts, saying goodbye to millions of dollars that he justifiably had coming to him. To this date, Tesla is not mentioned in most textbooks and is virtually unknown to most Americans, though the tide has been turning in recent years. Tesla actually invented the first AC electric motor, invented the radio (he proceeded Marconi by several years), and the arc light, broadcast the first television signals, and even created an earthquake that virtually rocked Manhattan. The device which shook buildings and shattered windows for miles was an apparatus so small it could be placed in a person's pocket. Later, before his passing, Tesla stated that this device was so powerful it could prevent another World War. The large sized, 8.5x11 volume is richly illustrated and contains the patents that many claim have been withheld from the public. Some technicians still don't know what to make of a number of his inventions. Can you help crack any hidden "codes" that may be found in his remaining research papers?
