Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
There are two classes of persons to whom these pages may afford information and to whom they are chiefly addressed, viz., the person who for the first time conceives that he has made an inven -tion and who is actually desirous of benefiting himself thereby; and the patentee who is anxious to render his newly-acquired privilege profitable. When a man has made what he considers to be a discovery or invention, he intuitively feels that to derive any profit from it, he must secure a patent for it; but there his acquaintance with the subject ends commonly he is at a loss to know what course to pursue. To solve the perplexities, he probably consults the best informed among his friends ;and when, as generally happens, the most conflicting and contradictory opinions are given, he ends by taking his own course, which is not always the best under the circumstances. Now, the success of a patent, like that of a book, depends much on the manner in which it is presented to public notice.

The author argues that invention is key to human progress, and that most often even incremental inventions can be commercially successful.
