《特斯拉自传》内容简介

　　1931年，特斯拉75岁生日时，共收到八位诺贝尔物理学奖得主的来信。

　　1943年，特斯拉的葬礼上，有三位诺贝尓物理学奖得主到场致词。

　　1960年，慕尼黑的国际电工委员会确定特斯拉为磁感应强度的国际科学单位。

　　1975年，特斯拉被正式引入美国国家发明家名人堂。

　　本书是特斯拉自述为爱发电、不断发明的狂热一生。

　　他是自律的天才：体力与耐力惊人，连续工作三十八年，一天不落，而且还能保持强健的体魄和清醒的头脑。所有的衣服都是三十多年尺寸没有任何变化。

　　他是勤奋的天才：他在大学第一学年，一直都是凌晨3点开始学习，直至晚上11点，周末和假期也不例外。几乎有一年的时间，他都是从上午10点半工作到次日清晨5点，没有一天例外。这段时间，他设计出了二十四种不同类型、统一制式的短轴标准机器，替换了之前的老款机器。

　　他是纯粹的天才：他发现提高人类能源的三个解决方案可以用三个词来概括——食物、和平和工作。这个问题他思考了很多年，迷失在各种推测和理论中，最后将人视为由力推动的整体物质，将这种无法解释的运动比照为机械运动，同样根据简明的机械运动原理来分析。

　　通过特斯拉的自述，我们能看到一颗超前时代的大脑，一种想要用科技让生活更美好的纯粹。

　　在科技似乎越来越缺少人性关怀的当下，我们格外需要了解特斯拉。

　　作者简介

　　尼古拉·特斯拉

　　NikolaTesla，1856—1943

　　美国杰出的发明家、物理学家、机械工程师和电机工程师，出生于塞尔维亚，拥有一千多项专利。他被认为是电力商业化的重要推动者之一，并因主持设计了现代交流电系统而广为人知。在迈克尔·法拉第发现的电磁场理论的基础上，特斯拉在电磁场领域有着多项革命性的发明。他的多项相关专利以及电磁学的理论研究工作是现代的无线通信和无线电的基石。

　　1917年，特斯拉获得了美国电气工程师学会授予的爱迪生奖章，虽然他没有去领奖；

　　1931年，特斯拉登上美国《时代周刊》封面；

　　1960年，在巴黎召开的国际计量大会上，为了纪念特斯拉的成就，“磁感应强度”的单位从此被命名为“特斯拉”。

"Tesla Autobiography" content introduction

In 1931, on his 75th birthday, Tesla received letters from eight Nobel Prize winners in physics.

At Tesla's funeral in 1943, three Nobel laureates in physics spoke.

In 1960, the International Electrotechnical Commission in Munich designated the Tesla as the international scientific unit for magnetic induction strength.

In 1975, Tesla was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame.

This book is about Tesla's self-described love of electricity, continuous invention fanatical life.

He is a genius of self-discipline: his physical strength and endurance are amazing, and he has worked continuously for thirty-eight years without losing a day, and he has maintained a strong body and a clear mind. All the clothes are more than 30 years old without any change in size.

He was a hard-working genius: during his first year at university, he studied from 3am until 11pm, even on weekends and holidays. For almost a year, he worked from 10:30 a.m. to 5 a.m., every day without exception. During this time, he designed 24 different types of unified short-axis standard machines, replacing the previous old machines.

He was pure genius: he discovered that three solutions to improving human energy can be summed up in three words - food, peace and work. He pondered this question for many years, lost in various speculations and theories, and finally regarded man as a whole matter driven by forces, comparing this unexplained motion to mechanical motion, and analyzing it also according to the simple principle of mechanical motion.

Through Tesla's self-statement, we can see a brain ahead of its time, a purity that wants to use technology to make life better.

At a time when technology seems increasingly impersonal, we need to understand Tesla.

About the author

Nikola Tesla

NikolaTesla, 1856-1943

Distinguished American inventor, physicist, mechanical engineer and electrical engineer, born in Serbia, holds more than 1,000 patents. He is considered one of the important promoters of the commercialization of electricity and is widely known for presiding over the design of modern alternating current systems. Based on the electromagnetic field theory discovered by Michael Faraday, Tesla has a number of revolutionary inventions in the field of electromagnetic fields. His many related patents and theoretical research work in electromagnetism are the cornerstones of modern wireless communication and radio.

In 1917, Tesla received the Edison Medal from the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, although he did not attend to receive the award;

In 1931, Tesla appeared on the cover of Time magazine.

In 1960, at the International Metrology Congress held in Paris, in order to commemorate Tesla's achievements, the unit of "magnetic induction strength" was named "Tesla" from then on.
