Nikola Tesla Imagination and the Man That Invented the 20th Century

Sean Patrick — 2013

If you want to learn about one of history’s most fascinating minds and uncover some of his secrets of imagination—secrets that enabled him to invent machines light years ahead of his time and literally bring light to the world—then you want to read this book. Imagination amplifies and colors every other element of genius, and unlocks our potential for understanding and ability. It’s no coincidence that geniuses not only dare to dream of the impossible for their work, but do the same for their lives. They’re audacious enough to think that they’re not just ordinary players. Few stories better illustrate this better than the life of the father of the modern world, a man of legendary imaginative power and wonder: Nikola Tesla. In this book, you’ll be taken on a whirlwind journey through Tesla’s life and work, and not only learn about the successes and mistakes of one of history’s greatest inventors, but also how to look at the world in a different, more imaginative way. Read this book now and learn lessons from Nikola Tesla on why imagination is so vital to awakening your inner genius, and insights into the real “secret” to creativity, as explained by people like Jobs, Picasso, Dali, and Twain.

Though the title seems misattributed to the book, non the less quite fruitful time I had reading it. This book does not explore every part of marvel that is Nikola Tesla but sure does gives glimpse of hardships of his life.

5/5 for Tesla and 3/5 for the writer. Tesla is my hero since I know him but the editing and writing style of this book is so fast paced and incidences aren't cleared down. Maybe I'm wrong and this book is intended to be a short book. This book is worth checking out, just go for it.

I came across this book on Amazon one day. I read its cover: I thought it was going to be informative, biographical. I'm not a fool for that, the book has TESLA written massively on its cover. But what I got was a self-help book mixed with ads of other books by Sean Patrick. I hate when authors promise something they can't quite develop. I hate when someone messes around with Physics. And I'm completely disgusted with the idea of someone using the image and the name of Tesla for the sake of selling, in this case, books. Don't get me wrong: Yes. Aproximately 40% of the book is related to Tesla, the hostility with Edison and some of his patents; but it's information you can acquire in any other book or website. 20% of the book is full of ads and the other 40% is a quasi-essay about what it takes to be a genius. That "essay" is full of tiring basketball analogies and is written in a self-help book's tone. My physicist heart is broken and my brain is angry, but I wouldn't be so furious if the title of the book had been Imagination and the Man That Invented the 20th Century.
