Nikola Tesla, a Serbian immigrant, invented the radio, the induction motor, the neon lamp, and the remote control. His breakthrough came in alternating current, the basis of the electric grid and long-distance electrical transmission. This pitted him against Thomas Edison's direct current empire, and bitter patent battles ensued.
But Tesla's technology was superior, and eventually, he prevailed. Unfortunately, he had no business sense and could not capitalize on this success. His most advanced ideas were unrecognized for decades: 40 years in the case of the radio patent; longer still for his ideas on laser beam technology.
Tesla's personal life was magnificently bizarre. Strikingly handsome and impeccably dressed, he was germophobic and never shook hands. He required nine napkins when he sat down to dinner. In later years, he ate only white food and conversed with the pigeons in Bryant Park. This clear, authoritative, and highly enjoyable biography takes account of all phases of this remarkable life.

Well it appears that Nikolai Tesla was the major guy the visionary that helped bring electricity to the masses and radio to all our ears.
Set the record straight, Thomas Edison important but not as special as Nikolai Tesla

And it was not a hard thing to do. I really liked the narrative and the way the history was told and all of the details of the life of this man. I tried other Tesla audiobooks samples and I found this the more appealing and I can say I really enjoyed it and recommend it.
interesting all the way
