Nikola Tesla: Lightning in the Shadows. Vision, brilliance, and the misunderstood inventions that powered the modern world

Nikola Tesla is remembered as a genius, but rarely understood. His ideas electrified the modern world, even as his name faded behind louder voices and simpler legends.

Tesla envisioned a future powered by alternating current, wireless transmission, and global communication long before the world was ready. Yet his refusal to compromise, his distrust of profit, and his singular devotion to invention left him isolated as others capitalized on his ideas.

Lightning in the Shadows follows Tesla's rise, isolation, and enduring influence with balance and depth. It separates myth from reality, exploring the scientific breakthroughs that reshaped civilization and the personal cost of being decades ahead of one's time. This is not a tale of madness or martyrdom, but of vision colliding with an industrial world that rewarded control over creativity.

For readers seeking the real Tesla, engineer, thinker, and reluctant icon, this book illuminates the man behind the current.
