Tesla : The True Wireless (Tesla Technology Series)

Not a reprint.Completely reset and redesigned with an introduction and explanatory notes by the editor.

First published in 1919, this is Tesla's final published statement on how radio, at the radical, really works. Everything you know is wrong.

Tesla says the orthodox Herzian radio theory we've been taught is a fiction. He insists that the amount of energy that can be transmitted is "billions of times greater" than conventional radio would allow.

"I gave the world a wireless system of potentialities far beyond anything before conceived... transmission absolutely unlimited as to terrestrial distance and amount of energy."

Can we transmit electric power without wires? Can the unsightly and vulnerable grid come down? Tesla is convinced.
