Originally published in 1919 in Electrical Experimenter magazine, here are Nikola Tesla's own reflections on his early years and work. Tesla explains the motivations behind his inventions and reveals many personal and insightful stories about his life. Newly designed and typeset in a modern 5.5-by-8.5-inch format by Waking Lion Press.

Nikola Tesla wrote My Inventions as a six-part series appearing in the magazine Electrical Experimenter's February, March, April, May, June, and October 1919 issues. Tesla is The Man out of Time, the Man who could have built you a cell phone back in the early 1900s, the man who invented radio, and the man who is chiefly responsible for useful modern electricity. What better way to learn about the greatest scientist to be forgotten by history books than to read his life story in his own words?

This is Tesla's autobiography he wrote when was 63, first published in a magazine.

2011 Reprint of 1919 Edition. Published in six parts 1919 in the "Electrical Experimenter" Magazine. "My Inventions" is Telsa's autobiographical legacy. Long out of print, "My Inventions" reveals how a relentless photographic memory and runaway imagination almost fatally cursed his childhood in Yugoslavia. Tesla tells how he willfully harnessed his visions to invention, yet never outgrew his many bizarre childhood fears and compulsions. This is the famous story of Tesla's Faustian quest for the electric motor the experts said could never be built-a quest deep into his own unconscious mind...

Although Nikola Tesla is best known for his work with electricity he made significant contributions in many scientific areas, one was in the field of Roentgen rays, better known today as x-rays. Collected here are nine essays on Roentgen rays. Nikola Tesla was a Serbian-American inventor, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer. He was an important contributor to the birth of commercial electricity, and is best known for developing the modern alternating current (AC) electrical supply system. Tesla's patents and theoretical work also formed the basis of wireless communication and the...

"Speaking for myself, I have already had more than my full measure of this exquisite enjoyment, so much that for many years my life was little short of continuous rapture. I am credited with being one of the hardest workers and perhaps I am, if thought is the equivalent of labor, for I have devoted to it almost all of my waking hours. But if work is interpreted to be a definite performance in a specified time according to a rigid rule, then I may be the worst of idlers. Every effort under compulsion demands a sacrifice of life-energy. I never paid such a price. On the contrary, I have thrived...

In Famous Scientific Illusions Nikola Tesla addresses "exceptionally interesting errors in the interpretation and application of physical phenomena which have for years dominated the minds of experts and men of science." Among these are the Moons rotation, Interplanetary Communication, Signals to Mars and others. Nikola Tesla was a Serbian-American inventor, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer. He was an important contributor to the birth of commercial electricity, and is best known for developing the modern alternating current (AC) electrical supply system. Tesla's patents and...

Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency is a transcript of a lecture that Tesla gave to the London society of electrical engineers pertaining to his experiments with alternate currents of high potential and high frequency. Included in this book is a short biographical sketch of Tesla. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency will be of interest to anyone interested in the history of the development of electricity as we know it today and of particular interest to those with a background in engineering or a physical science. This...
