Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This insightful, well-researched book seeks to define terms for discussing inventions, making clear distinctions between discovery and invention. It reviews the history of invention and examines the competitive spirit that drives inventors. The author argues convincingly that inventors aren't born but made, and that invention is the result of a particular mindset that often includes elements of self-delusion and impracticality. It's this mindset that often leads to a lack of public support for inventors. The author surveys the whole intellectual and cultural terrain of invention, from the false starts to the genuine breakthroughs that transform our world, and concludes that although many inventions go unrealized, they often lay the groundwork for future generations of innovators. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331692423_0
