Tesla vs Edison: The Life-Long Feud That Electrified the World

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison fought a fierce, historic battle known as the "War of the Currents" to decide which electrical system would power the modern world. Thomas Edison, the self-taught practical genius and businessman, fiercely backed Direct Current (DC). Meanwhile, Nikola Tesla, the brilliant, visionary Serbian immigrant and former employee of Edison, championed Alternating Current (AC).

"Tesla vs Edison" explores this lifelong rivalry, detailing how Edison launched aggressive publicity campaigns to discredit AC power, while Tesla partnered with George Westinghouse to prove its safety and efficiency. This book uncovers the dramatic mix of corporate espionage, brilliant breakthroughs, and personal tragedies that defined two of history's greatest inventors and shaped the technological infrastructure of our global society.
