    Summary: A good start to learning about Tesla
    Comment: I never knew about Tesla until this year. I never knew how much his work affected my everyday living. I wish they would've let him go ahead with the free energy towers worldwide, it would be a different planet now.
    He might have moved us into a Type I civilization by now. Type I is using all the power of the sun. Right now we use less than 5% of it which makes us a Type 0 because we still use plants and minerals for fuel.
    The Book was a great read and it moved me into The Tesla Papers next.
    It's a good starting point.

    Summary: Not much choice!
    Comment: It's worth reading, at least once, if you are interested about Nicola Tesla. Unfortunately he's not as popular as he should have been, as a result of which there aren't too many books about him; so this book is better than no book at all.

    Summary: A shoddy edition of a text deserving of better
    Comment: The presentation of Nikola Tesla's fascinating life and work is manhandled in this edition of his autobiography, My Inventions.

    The text is full of typographical errors; the letter "i" (referring to Tesla in the first-person) is rarely ever capitalized, and there are numerous misspellings of simple words. Paragraph breaks seem to have been inserted at random and, when compared to other editions, do not correspond with the others' layouts or chapters.

    I do not know what Tesla's manuscript looked like or who is responsible for typesetting it for BNPublishing, but it is most telling that Amazon's link to look inside this book redirects to a different edition.

    Summary: A fantastic insight into a true genius
    Comment: Even though this is a very short book and only deals with the first half of Tesla's life, it still provides some fantastic insights into the life of a genius. Written by Tesla after some very traumatic experiences in his life, he still comes through as a very generous and forgiving man. When you read his version of the troubles with J.P.Morgan, you realise the myths that have accumulated around Tesla. Great read!!!

    Summary: Good quick life story
    Comment: I'm really a fan of Tesla and this book was a good view into him as a person. Although the exact same pages of this book can be found in the end portion of the book "The Nikola Tesla Treasury" and I highly suggest that book over this one.
