Tesla: Man Out of Time touches a bit on the race between Edison and Tesla. A very good book as well.

Does this book cover the business relationship that Tesla had with Westinghouse?

The impression that I got from Empires of Light is that Tesla's "research" needed a lot of "design" by Westinghouse's engineers before they could be turned into practical, working designs.

That makes sense at some level, but I'd love to read other perspectives.
