Paperback. M. W. Thring And E. R. Laithwaite, Macmillan. Condition remarks:Book: Fair Jacket: No dust jacketPages: Good Markings: No markingsCondition remarks: Condition as shown in imageA practical and intellectually stimulating guide to the creative process of invention, How to Invent presents a structured approach to developing original ideas and turning them into workable solutions. Written by two distinguished British engineers and academics, the work argues that inventiveness is not an innate gift reserved for a select few, but a disciplined skill that can be cultivated through observation, lateral thinking, and systematic problem-solving. The authors draw on their own considerable experience in engineering and physics to illustrate how inventors throughout history have identified needs, challenged assumptions, and arrived at breakthrough solutions. Written with clarity and enthusiasm, the text instructs aspiring inventors on how to harness curiosity and rigorous methodology in equal measure. It stands as both an inspiring manifesto for creative thinking and a hands-on manual for anyone eager to bring a new idea to life. Paperback.…

Etat : Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 304 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Eric Laithwaite takes the reader on a guided tour through the mysteries of invention, stopping off to examine the laws of nature and engineering. He shows how many of our inventions are based on designs which were evolved by the natural world over millions of years. In fact we learn that the natural world has often found more efficient answers than we have to taxing engineering problems. The shapes and sizes of both natural and Man-made objects are largely dictated by the size and weight of the earth and by the properties of materials. An Inventor in the Garden of Eden crosses many boundaries; as well as natural history and engineering, the author discusses religion, economics and cosmology. More than that, the author deals with such fundamental topics as habit, experience, logic, simplicity, wisdom and civilisation. This book dispels all the myths surrounding the belief that human inventions are superior to anything that evolution has produced in the living world.…
