The exact nature of electricity was a mystery that tantalized scientists for centuries. As its power was revealed, it excited a succession of brilliant inventors from Nikola Tesla to Robert Noyce.
Their discoveries revolutionized the world.
In unflinching detail, Camenzind describes their personal ambitions, conflicts, betrayals, and successes, creating a masterful synthesis of human interest and lucid technical description, unlike any other book on this subject.
