O'Quinn Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Nikola Tesla was a physicist, scientist, electrical engineer, and world-renowned inventor whose accomplishments faded into oblivion after his death in 1943. Tesla was undeniably eccentric and compulsive; some considered him to be somewhat of a "mad" scientist. But in reality, he was a visionary. Many of his ideas and inventions that were deemed impossible during his lifetime have since become reality. He was the first to successfully use rotating magnetic fields to create an AC (alternating current) electrical power supply system and induction motor. He is now acknowledged to have invented the radio ahead of Marconi. Among other things, he developed the Tesla coil, an oscillator, generators, fluorescent tubes, neon lights, and a small remote-controlled boat. He helped design the worlds first hydroelectric plant at Niagara Falls. Nikola Tesla for Kids is the story of Nikola Teslas life and ideas, complete with a time line, 21 hands-on activities, and additional resources to better understand his many accomplishments. Author Biography Amy M. OQuinn is a former teacher and the author of Marie Curie for Kids.
