Acerca de esta escucha

In Tesla: Man Out of Time, Margaret Cheney explores the brilliant and prescient mind of one of the 20th century's greatest scientists and inventors. Called a madman by his enemies, a genius by others, and an enigma by nearly everyone, Nikola Tesla was, without a doubt, a trailblazing inventor who created astonishing, sometimes world-transforming devices that were virtually without theoretical precedent. Tesla not only discovered the rotating magnetic field - the basis of most alternating-current machinery - but also introduced us to the fundamentals of robotics, computers, and missile science. Almost supernaturally gifted, unfailingly flamboyant and neurotic, Tesla was troubled by an array of compulsions and phobias and was fond of extravagant, visionary experimentations. He was also a popular man-about-town, admired by men as diverse as Mark Twain and George Westinghouse, and adored by scores of society beauties.

From Tesla's childhood in Yugoslavia to his death in New York in the 1940s, Cheney paints a compelling human portrait and chronicles a lifetime of discoveries that radically altered - and continue to alter - the world in which we live. Tesla: Man Out of Time is an in-depth look at the seminal accomplishments of a scientific wizard and a thoughtful examination of the obsessions and eccentricities of the man behind the science.

Good but very dated.

Didn't realize it was so dated. About 35 years old now. I wonder what technical advancements have made using Tesla's ideas since the book was written and published.

A Story that Lost Its Momentum as did Tesla

The first half of the story was spectacular when Tesla was in his prime. But the story lost it’s momentum as the author recounted his latter years of financial and creative decline. It was sad to hear of his decades of fruitless longing for recognition and financial security. Of course it was an authentic accounting of his years - but nonetheless disappointing.

A Hidden History

Listened to this twice. I learned a lot about Tesla and his prolific genius, and yes his many flamboyant claims of how we could communicate with other planets and even visit there someday.

The only sad thing was that I never heard a word of this in all my years of public school.

This is a brilliantly written piece of non fiction

This is a brilliantly written piece of non fiction about a man who probably had the most impact on technical advances in modern times until Steve Jobs

Thorough and well written and read.

Enjoyed understanding this documented and well researched history of this incredibly consequential person. Sad that the world did not fully utilize his talent. I'm excited for the future as we leverage his work for a better future.
