Electric Wizard...Mad Scientist...Public Enemy Number One Nikola Tesla has a unique affinity for electric current...he can visualize the unseen...he speaks with beings of light. In 1899, he receives a message from "Mars". When he meets the alien visitors, he finds their agenda not what he had expected. And they require his scientific expertise to further their aims. Then things start to go wrong--and "mad scientist" Nikola himself is blamed. He and his brilliant colleague Clara must go on the run from alien captors and human authorities alike. They seek a refuge where they can develop their futuristic defenses against the "Martians". At the same time, Nikola must learn to tap into the cosmic forces and face his own demons: his phobia of germs, touching and love. Their only allies are the enlightened ones, on Earth and on a far-away world of disembodied energy beings. Eventually Nikola and Clara must return to a devastated New York City, where they will face the alien invaders in the final battle for the fate of humanity. A classic-style SF novel that blends real history with fantastic gizmos, far-out space wonder, and hair-raising adventure.

Tekla: A Romance of Love and War (1898) Robert Barr (16 September 1849 - 21 October 1912) was a Scottish-Canadian short story writer and novelist, born in Glasgow, Scotland.Barr emigrated with his parents to Upper Canada at age four and was educated in Toronto at Toronto Normal School. Barr became a teacher and eventual headmaster of the Central School of Windsor, Ontario. While he had that job he began to contribute short stories-often based on personal experiences-to the Detroit Free Press. In 1876 Barr quit his teaching position to become a staff member of that publication, in which his contributions were published with the pseudonym "Luke Sharp." This nom de plume was derived from the time he attended school in Toronto. At that time he would pass on his daily commute a shop sign marked, "Luke Sharpe, Undertaker", a combination of words Barr considered amusing in their incongruity. Barr was promoted by the Detroit Free Press, eventually becoming its news editor.In 1881 Barr decided to "vamoose the ranch", as he stated, and relocated to London, to establish there the weekly English edition of the Detroit Free Press. 4] In 1892 he founded the magazine The Idler, choosing Jerome K. Jerome as his collaborator (wanting, as Jerome said, "a popular name"). He retired from its co-editorship in 1895. In London of the 1890s Barr became a more prolific author-publishing a book a year-and was familiar with many of the best-selling authors of his day, including Bret Harte and Stephen Crane. Most of his literary output was of the crime genre, then quite in vogue. When Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories were becoming well-known Barr published in the Idler the first Holmes parody, "The Adventures of Sherlaw Kombs" (1892), a spoof that was continued a decade later in another Barr story, "The Adventure of the Second Swag" (1904). Despite the jibe at the growing Holmes phenomenon Barr and Doyle remained on very good terms. Doyle describes him in his memoirs Memories and Adventures as, "a volcanic Anglo-or rather Scot-American, with a violent manner, a wealth of strong adjectives, and one of the kindest natures underneath it all." Robert Barr died from heart disease on 21 October 1912, at his home in Woldingham, a small village to the southeast of London.
This 50-minute play tells the story of Nikola Tesla, a young immigrant scientist who comes to New York City with dreams of working for Thomas Edison, his hero, and sharing his dreams of electricity with the world.

What is special and different about Tesla is best shown by comparing its strengths and weaknesses to those of the Big 3 and Toyota. The comprehensive managerial framework of 5-Dimensional Value shows that e.g. Ford, Chrysler and Toyota are particularly strong in three of the value dimensions, GM in only two; and Tesla in all five Structured insights into strategically managing value for customers, personnel, business partners and investors are used to forecast the future of the five firms and the US auto market. More importantly, 5-D Value links the internal success factors - five Managerial Do-Well's - and external success factors - five Markets Value Factors - which any business needs to consider when generating value in its operations and transacting value on the market. Thus the insights in the book can be applied to improve value management at all firms, from internet start-ups to mature brick-and-mortar companies. In this book it is shown: Tesla: Viability of online sales and treatment of personnel will be decisive - and not simply the cars, which will receive a boost if Google or Apple produce an electric car GM: Perhaps too solidly positioned today to move with the market tomorrow Toyota: Can be "boring", but the most explorative to find success Chrysler: More broad-based going forward thanks to Fiat Ford: Democracy at the democratizer, finally, to realize the vision of "green" lifestyle cars

Explore the War of the Currents and the Individual Lives of Nikola Tesla and Thomas EdisonTwo captivating manuscripts in one book: Nikola Tesla: A Captivating Guide to the Life of a Genius Inventor Thomas Edison: A Captivating Guide to the Life of a Genius Inventor Who was the real winner in the war of the currents? What happened to both of them? And what were their lives like from beginning to end? These are just some of the questions this book aims to answer so you can come to your own conclusion about the question; who was the better inventor, Nikola Tesla, or Thomas Edison? Obsessive, brilliant, and tortured, Nikola Tesla was lauded for his invention of the alternating current (AC), and other significant contributions to science. His claim that "harnessing the forces of nature was the only worthwhile scientific endeavor" both impressed and enraged the scientific community. Eventually, his peers could no longer dismiss his eccentricities and began to view him as a crackpot -- a potentially dangerous one. The part of this book that covers mostly Nikola Tesla includes topics such as: Childhood Education and Early Career Patents and Politics The Eccentric Genius Tesla's Coil and the Niagara Contract Influential Friends and the Lure of Flight The Wardenclyffe Tower 1914 and Beyond And much more Thomas Edison was born into a hard-working but attentive family. He struggled in school and became deaf at an early age. Born on February 11, 1847, Edison would become, arguably, the best-known American inventor of all time. His invention of the light bulb was one of more than 1,000 patents he held during his lifetime. Others included the phonograph, the electrical grid, and motion pictures. His work changed the way we see and hear the world around us. The part of this book that covers mostly Thomas Edison includes topics such as: America Before Edison Enter the Edisons Edison's Mother and Life in Port Huron Telegraphy and Leaving Home Inventing the Future in Menlo Park The Industrial Revolution and Lighting New York The Phonograph and Moving Pictures The World Columbian Exposition The War of the Currents Love, Marriage and Seminole Lodge Edison's War Work Edison and Anti-Semitism The Electric Chair The Next Generation of Edison's Edison's Legacy And much more Scroll to the top and select the "Add to Cart" button to learn more about Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison
