Elizabeth Rush: The Wizard of Electricity
Selected as an Excellent Children's Science Book by the National Association of Teachers The story of Nikola Tesla, the genius scientist who changed the world with alternating current. This is Volume 7 of the ‘Hakkejaram Biographical Picture Book’ series. This book tells the story of the life and achievements of Nikola Tesla—a genius scientist who changed the world with numerous inventions ahead of their time, including the alternating current system that forms the foundation of modern electrical civilization, as well as the remote control, fluorescent light, X-ray photography, speedometer, radio, and radar—in an easy and fun way tailored to children's understanding. Nikola Tesla, who was once overshadowed by the fame of his rival, the "King of Inventors" Edison, is now being re-evaluated for his achievements as he becomes more widely known as the scientist most respected by other scientists. From his childhood captivated by electricity, to his boyhood vow to convert the power of Niagara Falls into electricity, to his college years realizing the power of alternating current, the fierce "War of Currents" with Edison, and his dramatic victories at the Chicago World's Fair and Niagara Falls—through the story of this great scientist ahead of his time, readers can awaken an interest in science and invention and learn the passion and perseverance required to constantly strive to achieve their dreams.
