Hello

Recently I read "ON LIGHT AND OTHER HIGH FREQUENCY PHENOMENA" by Nicola Tesla and I have to admit I liked it. It was really nice to see how Tesla used to quench spark gaps for example.

What similar or interesting writings by Nicola Tesla would you recommend?

P.S.

At first I thought there is not much of it but now I see there is plenty of writings about Tesla inventions.

I recently purchased a copy of 'The Tesla Papers' by Nicola Tesla, edited by David Hatcher Childress, from a 'crank' shop in Glastonbury, UK, for £15.

I've not read it properly yet, but it does look interesting. I would recommend that anyone wishing to learn more about Tesla should read it, but with an open mind.

I'd also be interested in other people's opinions regarding this publication.

I will post again once I've read it in depth.

Tesla wrote very little of interest, because he didn't publish much. Like
Edison, most of what he thought can be found in this patents. Read them all.
Most of what was written was about these two gentlemen.

These books should be available from libraries.

This isn't by Nikola Tesla, but its a biography of him by Margaret Cheney.

"Tesla: Man out of Time"

It has a picture of the wardenclyffe tower on the cover.

I'm at school right now, but I will post a picture of my copy when I get home.
