AuthorViews is proud to release an excerpt from inventor Hans Camenzind's Much Ado About *Almost* Nothing: Man's Encounter with the Electron, a book about the history of electron discovery, with profiles of the people who made the most (or the worst) out of it.

In Much Ado About *Almost* Nothing, Camenzind introduces the scientists, inventors, engineers and nobodies who toyed with electricity and, as a result, enriched our general understanding on the subject -- from historical figures as renowned as Ben Franklin and Alexander Graham Bell to the relatively unknown personalities who nonetheless made huge contributions.

In this excerpt, Camenzind covers the undistinguished Lee de Forest, an inventor and entrepreneur who just may be the "Father of Radio."
