My Inventions: The Autobiography of Nikola Tesla

In 1919, Nikola Tesla wrote a series of articles for Electrical Experimenter detailing portions of his life and his work. The six chapters cover different periods of his life. Throughout his autobiography, Tesla offers peeks inside his mind providing insight into his genius. From the time he was little in Serbia to his time spent in the United States, Tesla talks about how he came to discover his inventions. Though known for a eponymous Tesla coil, his greatest contribution to the modern world was his creation of the induction motor and the polyphase system that allows the world to function today.
