Writing by the Scientist :
Diary and sundry observations of Thomas Alva Edison

Thomas Alva Edison's schooling ended when he was just eight years old. His
teacher told his mother that the boy's brain was "addled" and his mother,
furious, took him out of school. Despite his lack of formal education,
Edison went on to become one of the world's greatest inventors.
In 1876, he set up an 'invention factory' at Menlo Park in New Jersey,
USA. Other inventors had laboured hard to make an electric light that
people could use in their homes, but without success. It was persistence
that helped Edison succeed. After repeated failures to find a filament
that would not break or melt or evaporate he finally found what he was
looking for in carbonised thread. His bulb with its filament of scorched
thread burnt brightly for 600 hours at its first trial.
