Alexander Graham Bell
Alexander Graham Bell – we all learned about him in elementary school. He invented the telephone, of course. Well, maybe not. Seth Shulman is a science journalist who thinks Alexander Graham Bell stole the central idea for the telephone from another inventor. Shulman’s new book is called The Telephone Gambit: Chasing Alexander Graham Bell’s Secret.
