Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) è stato un profeta dell'era elettronica. La sua ricerca ha posto gran parte delle basi per i moderni sistemi elettrici e di comunicazione, e le sue impressionanti realizzazioni includono lo sviluppo del sistema elettrico a corrente alternata, la radio, il trasformatore a bobina di Tesla, la trasmissione senza fili e l'illuminazione fluorescente. La ricerca di Tesla era così innovativa che molti dei suoi contemporanei non sono riusciti a capirla, e altri scienziati sono ingiustamente accreditati per le sue innovazioni.
