The volume at hand is the autobiography of Nikola Tesla and his most widely cited work. Until his sixties Tesla never wrote about himself, nor did he discuss in interviews his upbringing, education, his life before coming to America, or his personal views on important events that informed his life and work. And then in 1915, in the June 5th issue of the Scientific American, he wrote the first autobiographical article entitled \u201cSome Personal Recollections.\u201d The reason for this short article can be found in occasional newspaper accounts denying Tesla\u2019s priority in the invention of the induction motor. Despite the fact that every lawsuit regarding his priority had been decided in his favor, he chose to publish an article in which he would describe the experiences that were still vivid in his memory about that invention. That is when the public first learned about the critical events that influenced the creation of the rotating magnetic field, the driving force behind the induction motor. It was actually a chain of events stretching all the way back to Tesla\u2019s earliest childhood. Then in January 1919, The Electrical Experimenter magazine ran an announcement by its publisher and editor Hugo Gernsback for a series of articles by Tesla headlined \u201cNikola Tesla and His Inventions.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pred vama je autobiografija Nikole Tesle koja je postala njegovo najvi\u0161e puta citirano delo. Sve do svojih \u0161ezdesetih godina Tesla nije pisao o sebi, niti je u intervjuima govorio o svom odrastanju, \u0161kolovanju, o periodu \u017eivota pre dolaska u Ameriku, kao ni o li\u010dnom vi\u0111enju va\u017enih doga\u0111aja koji su obele\u017eili njegov \u017eivot i rad. A onda je 1915. godine za \u010dasopis Scientific American, za broj koji je iza\u0161ao 5. juna 1915. godine, napisao prvi autobiografski \u010dlanak \u201eNeka li\u010dna se\u0107anja\u201c. Razlog za nastanak ovog kratkog \u010dlanka bili su povremeni novinski natpisi u kojima je Tesli osporavan prioritet u otkri\u0107u indukcionog motora. Iako su svi sudski sporovi vo\u0111eni oko prava prvenstva na ovo otkri\u0107e presu\u0111eni u Teslinu korist, on je odlu\u010dio da objavi \u010dlanak u kome \u0107e opisati iskustva koja su jo\u0161 uvek bila \u017eiva u njegovom se\u0107anju na ovo otkri\u0107e. \u010citaoci su tada prvi put mogli da saznaju o presudnim doga\u0111ajima koji su uticali na nastanak izuma obrtnog magnetnog polja, pokreta\u010dke sile indukcionog motora. Bilo je to zapravo klupko doga\u0111aja \u010diji je po\u010detak dosezao do Teslinog najranijeg detinjstva. A onda se u januaru 1919. godine u \u010dasopisu Electrical Experimenter pojavio \u010dlanak izdava\u010da i glavnog urednika Huga Gernsbeka (Hugo Gernsback, 1884-1967) kojim najavljuje seriju Teslinih \u010dlanaka pod nazivom \u201eNikola Tesla i njegovi izumi\u201c.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
