Synopsis

Delivered in 1893 (Franklin Institute, Philadelphia; and later the National Electric Light Association), this classic Tesla lecture captures the inventor at the height of his experimental work on high-frequency, high-potential electricity and its striking effects.

Moving from bold ideas about vision and perception into hands-on laboratory demonstrations, Tesla explains the apparatus and methods behind his conversions, then explores phenomena associated with electrostatic force, dynamic (current) electricity, impedance, and electrical resonance—leading into the remarkable light effects produced by high-frequency currents.

A fascinating primary source for readers interested in the origins of modern electrical engineering, early high-frequency research, and Tesla’s distinctive way of connecting theory, experiment, and imagination.
