From Bošković's fundamental theroy in natural philosophy to generic technical innovations of Tesla

A plethora of scientists gave their invaluable contribution to evolution of knowledge and technology. Among them, Ruđer Bošković and Nikola Tesla are unique and exceptional due to their scientific originality in comprehending basic laws and concepts of nature and a great number of fundamentally original visions in science and technology. Their scientific and technological ideas and innovations used to seem persistently applied for which mankind owes them a debt of gratitude. Ruđer Bošković, a great scientist and philosopher, wrote works and opuscules in philosophy of nature, mathematics, physics and technique areas in his books, which in turn inspired and stirred an intuition of another great scientific innovator – Nikola Tesla. The two gifted, top-notch intellectuals may form a synergy despite the fact that the time distance between them spanned one and a half centuries. A synergy drew over the natural science and echnique, inspired a genuine vortices towards a new visions in the mind and spirit of Nikola Tesla whose technical achievements enabled a new civilisation breakthrough. Paper aims to establish for the first time scientific-philosophical-engineering reflections and symbiosis on the work and thinking of Bošković and Tesla, discussing an epistemic foundations of the coupling between two exceptional minds.
