Nikola Tesla: Lectures and Patents

Plenty of patents and lectures. Anyone interested in Tesla should be happy with it.

Excellent book of teslas patents (those that have been released to the public anyway) but it reads that way. There is no how-to or explanations of how to create his many works. No explanation on how many windings or directions of polarities, or size dimensions, or strength of magnets, etc. All those tidbits of important information you have to figure out on your own. This is a great starting point though and all of his works are very inspirational to say the least.

This book emphasizes the electrical engineering Tesla did, rather than other areas of his work. It was the only book I found that was based on his writings and lectures directly, rather than other people's biased opinions of his work. If in doubt, always go to the original source -- this fits. A nice gift for the engineer in your life and an interesting read. My only negative is that this is a paperback, and the paper is not high quality, but it is a very thick, large book packed with info. Worth it. I packaged this with set of 6 Tesla Patent Wall Prints and a Tesla coil based Plasma Ball Lamp for an outstanding theme-based gift.

There are a great many books for sale that claim to be Nikola Tesla’s work but they will just be excerpts from this book. This is the book that you want. If you read through the titles of the different sections you’ll find that most of those have been individually removed and re-packages other books for sale so save yourself some money and get this first to see.

Great book, no damage when received!

Awesome book! Close to 800 pages. Very well organized material and excellent quality. This is a must-have item for anyone interested in Tesla's works. Highly recommend it!
