    About this audiobook

    Where does human energy come from, and where is it going? In this fascinating text, notable inventor Nikola Tesla examines these fundamental questions as he theorizes ways of maximizing human energy. While he thinks like a scientist, Tesla writes like a philosopher, making the text accessible for a wider audience. “The Problem of Increasing Human Energy” functions as both a valuable contribution to scientific thought and a self-help book for humanity.
