Synopsis
Although Alexander Graham Bell is widely accepted as the father of the telephone (despite the fact that rival inventor Elisha Gray submitted a similar claim the same day Bell filed his patent), Schulman provides intriguing evidence questioning if the scales were deliberately tipped in Alexander's favor.--From amazon.com., Did Alexander Graham Bell really invent the telephone? Author Seth Shulman painstakingly investigates Bell's letters and journals and makes a convincing case that, as is so often true in science, the true innovator has been overlooked by history, his place taken by the self-promoting, ambitious, and unethical Bell.
