Riassunto

"I can say without reservation that Peter Keefe's book, The Inventor Handbook, is an essential read and reread for anyone with an idea."
-- Harrison H. Schmitt, Apollo 17 Astronaut

Why is The Inventor Handbook an essential read and reread for anyone with an idea?

Because it will teach YOU:

• the art of transforming an idea into and invention;
• the strategies of converting an invention into a commercially valuable patent; and
• the tactics of bringing an invention to market with the aim to make serious money.

Written in an easy-to-read style, with tons of examples including the Author’s own patent application for his invention, the "Thawometer," which matured into U.S. Patent 9,410,730, novice and seasoned inventors alike will find the The Inventor Handbook a treasure-trove of how-to information. You'll know what your patent attorney needs to do for you to succeed.

Part I, Inventing, explores the subtleties of the process: how ideas originate, what characterizes a good idea, and how to turn that good idea into a perfected invention. To help you along the way, topics include the searching of prior art, assertions of co-inventorship, and claims of ownership by an employer.
