When Elon Musk was a kid in South Africa, he was regularly beaten by bullies. One day a group pushed him down some concrete steps and kicked him until his face was a swollen ball of flesh. He was in the hospital for a week. But the physical scars were minor compared to the emotional ones inflicted by his father, an engineer, rogue, and charismatic fantasist.

Nikola Tesla believed the universe was never bound to spiritual or natural laws, but is in essence a machine where we are but a mere part of. In this 1915 text Tesla applies the mechanical theory of life to the greater events of the time such as the war and the earthquake in Italy. He states that the man as a machine is joined in a universal wheelwork that feeds cosmic disturbances to our world and as a result introduces calamities that are, in the great scheme of things, not at all arbitrary but interconnected.

In reading ‘electrical oscillator’, you will probably automatically think ‘earthquake machine’. This charming title aside, electrical oscillators at its core employ an amplifier whose output is fed back to the input, so the signal regenerates and sustains itself. In this 1919 publication, Tesla further expands on one of his most famous inventions.

Inventor and scientist Nikola Tesla believed in the existence of life on other planets. One night in his laboratory in the Colorado mountains, he noted electronic signals that he deduced came from intelligent life on another planet.

In light of Heinrich Hertz’s experiments surrounding the Maxwellian electromagnetic theory of light, Tesla seeks to further validate his own system, which had thus far acquired little understanding. In this article, Tesla specifically focuses on some disturbances he observed in his own research and what they teach us about the behavior of energy. This article mainly expands on the effect solar radiation has on the wireless transmissions.

Benjamin Franklin is the founding father who winks at us - an ambitious urban entrepreneur who rose up the social ladder, from leather-aproned shopkeeper to dining with kings. In best-selling author Walter Isaacson's vivid and witty full-scale biography, we discover why Franklin turns to us from history's stage with eyes that twinkle from behind his new-fangled spectacles. In Benjamin Franklin, Isaacson shows how Franklin defines both his own time and ours. The most interesting thing that Franklin invented, and continually reinvented, was himself.

Americans wage many of today’s fiercest policy debates and culture wars over constitutional meaning.

Here, you'll get the same accessible, well-rounded introduction to constitutional law as a typical law student - but with the added benefit of noted constitutional scholar Eric Berger's brilliant insights.

Less than 50,000 years ago mankind had no art, no religion, no sophisticated symbolism, no innovative thinking. Then, in a dramatic and electrifying change, described by scientists as "the greatest riddle in human history," all the skills and qualities that we value most highly in ourselves appeared already fully formed, as though bestowed on us by hidden powers. In Visionary, Graham Hancock sets out to investigate this mysterious "before-and-after moment" and to discover the truth about the influences that gave birth to modern human mind.
