Томас Алва Едисон (1847 - 1931) е определян като най-великия изобретател на Америка. В течение на половин век регистрира 1093 патента само в САЩ и отделно още десетки в други страни. На него човечеството дължи развитието на електрификацията (крушката с нажежаема жичка, електромотора), звукозаписната техника (микрофона, високоговорителя, грамофона), кинематографията (камерата и прожекционния апарат) и прочие. След дългогодишни скитания и всевъзможни приключения из Средния Запад като юноша, след отчаяна борба за оцеляване в Бостън и Ню Йорк като млад мъж, през 1876 г. Едисон основава изследователската лаборатория в Менло ... |
