Don’t worry, there will be an actual update tomorrow. In this post I will link to my fellow wordpressers.
“I wish I had been born in the 19th century,” says Bancheese in this post. A very humorous post with remarks like: “Take, for example, corsets. Women wore these beneath their dresses to appear thinner and more desirable, even though it was the equivalent of being strangled by a middle-size boa.”
Tesla was a 19/20th century genius who literally illuminated the world we now live in and brought us to the science fiction levels our technology now enjoys. Suprisingly he has remained largely historically obscured. You’re right! Lots of info I didn’t know either, so check it out.
Life as a Victorian Lady book review. I know I’m adding it to my wishlist!
Tesla is fascinating! Watch ‘The Prestige’, David Bowie (aka God :-)) has a role as Tesla in it. Also, there’s a a
science book called ‘Electric Universe’ by David Bodanis, which I remember has some really good stuff on him, and is generally a v. interesting and well written book.
p.s. thanks for the link :-)
I love Bowie! I’ll make sure to watch that movie soon. And thanks for the book recommendation also! I’m usually not so into science so when a book is interesting and well written that will definately help :)
You’re welcome!
