My Inventions and Other Works
Nikola Tesla
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
Between February and October 1919, Nikola Tesla submitted many articles to the magazine Electrical Experimenter. The most famous of these works is a six part series titled My Inventions, which is an autobiographical account of Nikola Tesla's life and his most celebrated discoveries. This work has been compiled and republished as a stand-alone book several times under different names, but has been a cause of some controversy due to some versions deviating from the original text without explanation. This LibriVox project returns to the original text and expands upon it through the addition of Nikola Tesla's own supplementary articles as they were published in 1919.

First of all thank you Librivox for bringing us this interesting book, and to all the readers for good clear reading. I found the book very interesting, especially the early parts. The latter parts made frequent references to diagrams, so would need the paper version to understand those parts to a better level.
