A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Lawrence Breese Kilham is from the third generation of a family which has produced notable inventors who became successful business people. His grandfather Jim Breese had over 50 patents in an oil burner business that flourished from the 20's through the 50's. His father Peter Kilham had almost as many patents and was the founder of the leading bird feeder business in the U.S. His sister Anne Kilham currently has a leading Maine Coast gift card business which is very successful. Larry draws on their experiences freely along with his own in the writing of Great Idea to a Great Company: Making Inventions Pay.

Mr. Kilham received a bachelor's degree in Engineering Physics from the University of Colorado in 1963 and a master's degree in management from the Sloan School of Management at MIT in 1966. He hold three patents for important developments in chemical process instrumentation. In 1986 Larry was awarded the IR 100 award for inventing one of the 100 most significant technical products developed in the U.S. that year. This was for an instrument to automate higher quality plastics production. He has published technical articles which have appeared in professional journals and magazines, such as The TAPPI (pulp and paper industry) Journal, and Water Conditioning & Purification Magazine.

Larry has been in sales, engineering and management positions in various high tech companies since 1965. Currently he is president and owner of Eco Sensors, Inc., a rapidly growing environmental instrument company in Santa Fe, New Mexico..
