Summary: Hard Core Tesla
Comment: The casual coiler might have difficulty extracting usable information from the text, as it is not a how to book. It is, however a great insight into Tesla's mind. There are plenty of drawings and handwritten notes to keep the reader engrossed, and thinking about his next project. The book is fairly well assembled with a few new pictures, but personally I would like to see more pictures of his lab if they are available. This book is a must have for any enthusiast or collector.

Summary: schematics
Comment: This is a very interesting book. It has a lot of schematics, and notes from Tesla. If you know a bit about electronics this will be a good book for you. Otherwise it might be hard for others to understand. I would say have basic electronics knowledge before getting this.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Poor publishing, post-it notes to "correct" printing errors.
Comment: The quality of this book from the OUTSIDE looks great. The inside, however, has much to be fixed.
This NEVER should have been released to the public with such errors, and sloppy "fixing" by pasting small pieces of paper saying "this should be on page 41" and the like. Some information is missiong that SHOULD be in the book somewhere. If it is, I cant find it. Not everything is translated, and messy handwritten notes, while interesting, add nothing to the book other than nostalgia because they arent translated.
I'd love to see a book published in a dual-page format that isn't a mess like this one. I'd be willing to pay much more.
I feel I was cheated because of the price of this book.

Summary: Worth the money - a true Tesla Tome!
Comment: I was actually shocked when I received the book. For once someone has taken Tesla's notes, interpreted them, and put forth a true scientific understanding and explanation of his work complete with appropriate mathematical calculations. The book is hard bound and printed on the highest quality of paper and the photographs are simply superb. It is truly a book for the REAL researcher, scientist, and/or Tesla fan!
Excellent work Tesla Museum! This is a must have tome for any true Tesla-phile. It will be the envy of my collection!

Summary: While I give this 5 stars...
Comment: This was not the development period of his now secret work. For the ten years prior to Pike's peak Tesla lived in NY and while trying to prove Hertz's claims Tesla accidentally discovered 'radiant energy' in a different form. This (after 10 years) led him to learn how to stimulate energy by an 'electro-static event." Later his focus was on understanding how to capture the energy from the electro-static event and then convert it back into normal electricity. It was in Pike's peak (the period this book covers) that he develops new hardware for the already understood event that he wished to reproduce, just on a massive scale. Pike's peak was the preamble to the famous tower and first working prototype of it.
