"[Inventology] offers a new perspective into the process of
invention that will inform and illuminate."
--Publishers Weekly "'Inventology'" may be a real science;
researchers are beginning to study it, and teachers are teaching
it. Some 21st-century creations (crowdfunding, 3D printing) are
breaking down barriers (money, time) between new ideas and a useful
product, so a golden age of innovation seems in the offing. A
delightful account of how inventors do what they do."
--Kirkus, Starred
