Just read this book
AC/DC The savage tale of the first standards war I never new much about the history of our trade but this book has made me think.
It set out the war between Edison and Westinghouse as to which system was the best AC or DC. It shows how nasty and calculating people can be be when trying to further thier own ends. It deals whith what was happening to big buisness electrical supply in America in the 1880s. and finnishes with some intersting facts about today. Just enough facts to make you go and seek out more information.
Anyone advise me about some good reading about how the European industry evolved?
