This is an incredibly helpful text if you want to know more about the power in the atmosphere and the wireless life we are living in. I thank God for Tesla.
Incredible foresight into the future of energy and intelligence and a unique perspective on the evolution of human civilization. A lot of the things written by Tesla in 1900 still hold true today. Must read.
This was not the version I read. I down loaded a text copy from Archive.com which is where I get a lot of documents to read, which are downloadable in various formats as well as borrowing options.
I donate because all of their items are cough cough FREE.
Of course if you have read any of my comments you know I am a Tesla supporter the man had wisdom and understood after a while the absolute greed of men with no honor, and thankfully did not share his rather aggressive pocket size creations. You have to love THE HAMMER.
Pogled vizionarja. Obravnava vpliv virov energije na razvoj človeštva, razmišlja o možnostih: brezžičnega prenosa energije, povečanja uporabe gorenja premoga, uporabe sončne energije, energije vetra, plimovanja in valov, temperaturnih razlik v globini in površini zemlje ali morja, magnetne in gravitacijske energije, robotika, aluminij bo zamenjal železo v industriji, predvsem pa mi je bil zanimiv njegov pogled na človeštvo - dvig kolektivne zavesti,...
According to the year this book written, the concept here of course very brilliant, but maybe not in this age where the fussion for energy and the era of internet achieved. But the thinking here was indeed an enlightment for many scientists after tesla.
Most of us border madness. It's a value judgment at best, [the nonclinical sanity.] This guy had to be mad to take the extra step. The needs of sanity involve dealing with the everyday. This book is hard going [thin] and requiring a mind of equal value. This I cannot supply. I'm working on it.
I listened to this on Audible. Though I admire the efforts of amateurs in many cases, the reader was quite poor. There are dictionaries widely available that will help with pronunciation.
Wow, what a mind. When human civilization was just starting to impact the natural world, Tesla was already worrying about problems like what happens when all the fertilizers run out, like the natural ammonium nitrate deposits in Chile, which took millions of years to form. Just like oil, once they're gone, they're gone. As the population increases and these unrenewable resources run out, we'll be left with a huge population without any means of supporting it. Tesla was not only pointing this out, but was already working out the solutions at a time when nobody else seemed to know or care.
He had a brilliant mind and was well ahead of his time. In 1886, he discussed concepts like sentient robots and wireless electricity—remarkable ideas for that era.
However, his views on women were quite sexist; he believed that women would contribute more to humanity by not pursuing education, staying home, and stopping trying to be men. Additionally, he seems to display traits of a low-level religious fanatic. Unfortunately, his thinking was influenced by the social norms of his time.
Despite this, I agree with his three steps to advance humanity: Food, Peace, and Work.
