Tesla: Wizard at War is a book by Marc J. Seifer, chronicling the life and times of Nikola Tesla. Seifer writes about Tesla's genius and inventive mind as well as his work on particle beam weapons, which he helped develop during World War II. In the late 1800s, while struggling to find an investor for his electric car, Tesla experienced a "mental collapse." Although Tesla recovered by the time he worked on his invention, Seifer wrote that this breakdown had a major impact on Tesla's life and work.
Tesla is one of the most recognizable names in engineering. He's not just a household name, but his inventions have revolutionized the field of electricity which is still in use today. However, you may not be aware that Tesla had a dark side that was fueled by greed and power. This dark side led to something he never imagined: a war. A secret war against humanity.
The author, Marc Seifer plans to explore the most ambitious and also the most controversial episode of Tesla's career. This event is his best known and longest running quest, The Wizard War. It is also one of Tesla's greatest scandals- he lost his funding from the American government after accusing their military of inventing a particle beam weapon that could bring down Nikola Tesla's unique and highly powerful alternating current system- the electric grid. Against all odds however, he managed to raise virtually millions upon millions of dollars for the war by selling shares in a new company that was formed based on Tesla's ideas.
