Eventually holding over 700 patents, Tesla worked in a number of fields, including electricity, robotics, radar, and the wireless transmission of energy. His discoveries laid the groundwork for many of the twentieth century's greatest technological advances.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book explains Tesla's thoughts on
