Nikola Tesla’s True Wireless: A Paradigm Missed [Scanning Our Past]

The Hertz wave theory of wireless transmission may be kept up for a while, but I do not hesitate to say that in a short time it will be recognized as one of the most remarkable and inexplicable aberrations of the scientific mind which has ever been recorded in history. -Nikola Tesla, “The True Wireless,” 1919. The man who continues to resist after his whole profession has been converted has ipso facto ceased to be a scientist. -Thomas Kuhn, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, 1962.
