Tesla and Edison During the late 1890s the inventions of two great minds, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison, helped turn electricity from a scientific concept into a household amenity. In this paper, I will review both of these men’s lives, give an overview of their accomplishments, and go over how these accomplishments still have an impact today. Nikola Tesla was born July 10, 1856 in Smiljan, Croatia. A bright child with an almost photographic memory and an aptitude for problem-solving, Tesla…

Thomas Edison Thomas Edison struggled in his early life. Edison lost his hearing at a very young age, due to the scarlet fever.

Today, you can flip a switch to light a room, watch a video by pressing a few bottoms, and listen to music with a few clicks. Life wasn't always like this. Before Steve Jobs came along with the iPhone, iPad, iPod, Macintosh, or Pixar, there were other inventors who helped slowly build our world today. One of them was Thomas Edison. Thomas Edison didn't live the most perfect life, he was almost deaf, had little actual education and was poor in his childhood, but that didn't stop him from…

let me start off by saying that both Tesla and Edison had many inventions that changed the world in a way. They both to me in my opinion were the utmost ingenious people to put forth ideas that no one else would of thought before. If it weren't for them both we won't be holding some of the stuff that we have today, like our phones and instead of electricity something else like candle power. I would love to be an apprentice on their side for either Edison or Tesla because it would have been so…

and Tesla, the use of electricity has been taken to completely different levels and it can be seen all around us. I believe that Nikola Tesla has had a larger impact on the science world than Edison has. Nikola Tesla was born on July 10, 1856 in Smiljan, Croatia. Because his mom was an inventor of household appliances, he began to find an interest in electricity when young. Even though, he was encouraged by his father into priesthood, Tesla study at a polytechnic institute. Soon after, Tesla…
