10 Forgotten Inventors Who Changed the World: True Stories of Genius, Mystery, and Erased Legacies T

What if the greatest minds in history were never taught in school? What if some of the inventions that shaped our lives-Wi-Fi, AI, wireless power, even modern medicine-came from people history forgot... or tried to erase?

10 Forgotten Inventors Who Changed the World uncovers the hidden stories of radical thinkers who changed the course of humanity-and were buried by politics, prejudice, or time. From Nikola Tesla's lost energy towers to Hedy Lamarr's secret war-time invention of spread spectrum technology, from an enslaved African girl who became the first Black female poet, to the anonymous inventor of Bitcoin-this book rewrites history with the stories that matter most today.

In gripping, novel-like chapters backed by serious research and over 200 scholarly references, this book explores:

- The mystic healer who may have brought down the Romanovs
- A Jewish immigrant who cycled around the world-and rewrote the rules for women
- The mathematician who envisioned computer code before computers existed
- The doctor whose obsession with handwashing could have saved millions-if anyone had listened
- And many more...

Why were these inventors forgotten? Who benefited from their erasure? And how different would our world look if they had been recognized in their time?

If you love narrative nonfiction like Sapiens, Hidden Figures, or The Code Breaker-this book is for you.

Rediscover the rebels, the radicals, and the revolutionaries whose ideas power your life-whether you know it or not.
