Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique and insightful perspective on invention, arguing that it is not merely a matter of chance or innate talent, but a science that can be learned and practiced. Drawing inspiration from the work of Francis Bacon, the author proposes that by studying past inventions and inventors, we can identify underlying principles and systematic methods that can guide the creative process. The book delves into the historical context of invention, tracing its evolution from a mystical and divine power to a recognized intellectual pursuit. It explores the role of suggestive ideas, including the importance of recognizing unmet public needs, understanding technical difficulties, and harnessing the power of observation. The author further emphasizes the significance of experimentation and critical inspection of existing devices, emphasizing how even seemingly crude inventions can be refined and improved upon by subsequent innovators. This book challenges the notion that invention is solely a matter of genius, arguing that anyone can cultivate their inventive power by applying diligence, knowledge, and a methodical approach. The book's exploration of the principles of invention as a science, presented through the lens of historical examples and practical applications, provides a compelling framework for understanding the process of creation and its impact on our world.
