Description du livre Paperback. 1st Edition. This is the story of how two brilliant men came together and changed the world. But while the banker, J.P. Morgan, left the relationship unscathed, remaining the uncontested Napoleon of Wall Street, his vision of a corporate world set in motion, the renowned inventor, Thomas Alva Edison, went from being hailed as the "bringer of light" to be derided as "Wall Street's executioner." From his breakthrough with the light bulb to his complicity in the invention of the electric chair, this self-taught workhorse of a man put the principles of science to practical effect to set the stage for many of the advances - but also some of the scourges -of the twentieth century. But what went on in the mind and heart of this "genius" the public thought it knew? One can only imagine. N° de réf. du vendeur 8023471
