Electrical Technology

Extreme views about climate change and energy are causing a rapid spread of misleading information that supports their biased narratives. Such misleading information can be very believable because of its sophisticated nature. This has led to widespread misconceptions in the global society. This book exposes the misconceptions, provides an efficient approach to recognize misleading information, and explores a path to a smarter energy future. The human society is faced with a crucial question: How to affordably meet our growing energy needs while minimizing the impact on the environment? This...

Nikola Tesla was a bundle of contradictions - a consummate showman and a private recluse; a man of science addicted to self-promotion; a prolific inventor of technologies that made other people’s fortunes. Tesla made giant leaps in the technology of electrical supply, X-rays, radio remote control, and wireless electrical transmission. He embodied the aspirations and the contradictions of an age of innovation that seemed to have the future firmly in its grasp. Then as now, he attracted cranks and visionaries in equal number.

Nikola Tesla, a Serbian American, was a major contributor to the start of the electric age, which transformed daily life at the turn of the 20th century. His inventions, patents, and theoretical work formed the basis of the modern AC electricity system. Meanwhile, his inventive genius led to the development of the radio, the television, and the modern world as we know it. Tesla was one of America's first celebrity scientists, much like his competitor Thomas Edison.

This audiobook includes biographies on the following men: Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison. Nikola Tesla pursued his ideas for wireless lighting and worldwide wireless electric power distribution in his high-voltage, high-frequency power experiments... There are a lot more to the story than just the light bulb, and there is a lot more to the invention of the light bulb than just Thomas Edison. One thing is for sure that he is still remembered as one of the greatest inventors of all time, and perhaps the greatest that America has ever produced.

Electricity, one of the most common forms of energy, also a basic part of nature. This audiobook introduces electricity, discussing its static and current forms; the uses of batteries, generators, and power stations; and the importance of safety precautions.

Thomas Alva Edison, called "America's biggest developer," was an American inventor and businessperson. In disciplines consisting of electrical power generation, mass communication, sound recording, and movie, he developed many devices.
