1.0 out of 5 stars
Bad reprint with many missing pages,
By
This review is from: Nikola Tesla (Paperback)
I recently bought this book but to my astonishment a significant number of the pages are missing in this Kessinger publication.According to the contents pages the patents section should end on page 451. After this there should be some 200 pages of articles. Unfortunately the book ends in the patents section, page 360. So Kessington have omitted some 300 pages in their publication. Unacceptabe, don't buy it!
