The author, himself a gifted electronic inventor, describes the various discoveries and inventions that have occurred in electricity and electronics throughout the centuries. Not only the invention itself is nicely discussed but also the environment in which it occurred: jealousy, lies, patent battles, lifes ending in embitterment, in poverty or with suicide.
A small book but a big read.
