It gives us a glimpse into Tesla's enthralling life in his own words. We're fortunate that Tesla's autobiography has survived the decades. It's difficult to find a more intriguing and strange autobiography. In one particularly strange incident, Tesla describes being chased by a frantic mob in a case of mistaken identity. Tesla tells us how he narrowly escaped death on several occasions, traveled the world, rubbed elbows with celebrities, captains of industry and the greatest scientists of his time. My Inventions is full of fascinating and sometimes bizarre stories. He suffered from hallucinations and several undiagnosed mental disorders, likely Obsessive Compulsive Disorder with a touch of Autism - possibly making Tesla a genuine 'mad scientist'. After reading My Inventions I discovered that Tesla was quite eccentric, he had a good sense of humor and he was quite a ladies man (although he never married). But few people know that he was more than a great inventor. It seems any mention of Nikola Tesla must be accompanied by a few obligatory proverbs - he was a genius, he transformed the world, he was ahead of his time, etc. I became so interested in Tesla that I eventually built my own Tesla coil, I wrote a Tesla coil design program called TeslaMap and created the Tesla Coil Design, Construction and Operation Guide. I thought it strange that Tesla had contributed so much to the world, yet he's virtually unknown to most people. I discovered that Tesla developed several of the most important technologies we use today. I was taking electronics engineering classes in college when I first learned about Nikola Tesla. Tesla was 63 years old when this text was first published in the Electrical Experimenter magazine in 1919. Welcome to Nikola Tesla's autobiography My Inventions.
