I was expecting a biography of Nikola Tesla's life. What I got in the beginning was an essay of what traits make up a genius (hence the word 'Imagination' from the title - I should have guessed from that clue alone what was ahead). I wasn't in the mood for a discussion on "What makes a genius a genius", I was in the mood for a biography. Hence the low rating.Sean Patrick comes across as knowing what he is talking about. You can tell he has done his research and put a lot of thought into this essay. And it is well-written, those of you looking to engage in this topic will very much enjoy what he has to say.Then we finally get to the biography part of the book. Adaquate, I would have enjoyed a bit more detail - but then...The book ends with Sean Patrick's summation of his essay. Fair enough. Am I sorry I read this book? No! Sean has sparked a tad of curiousity in me concerning a certain 'black box' which draws off a mysterious power source causing an electric car to hit speeds of 90 mph. THAT certainly screams for being looked into. What was in that black box? What happened to it? Is it stashed away somewhere in a government warehouse? Why hasn't anyone attempted to hunt it down?Now if Sean wrote about Tesla's lost black box, I'd certainly read it!
