About this audiobook
To those who believed that all the great electric discoveries had already been made, Tesla says, “What has been so far done by electricity is nothing as compared with what the future has in store.” In this fascinating article, he discusses the possibilities yet to be enacted using electricity. He successfully predicted current inventions, including common smart phone technologies of sending photos and using voice-to-text tools. Others are yet to be accomplished to his full vision—such as the prevention of diseases spread by germs—but that just shows how much more there still is to accomplish.
