Abstract :
The life of Thomas A. Edison, whose 100th anniversary is being observed this year, truly embodies the spirit of “The electrical engineer” for his contributions have stimulated almost every phase of electrical activity. To men such as Edison and his cofounders of the AIEE, to men whose accomplishments have been deemed worthy of recognition, and to every electrical engineer who simply serves faithfully, the world owes much of its comfort, its efficiency, and its well-being.
