Editorial Review Product Description Inventiveness and ingenuity from North America's First Nations. Everyone knows that moccasins, canoes and toboggans were invented by the Aboriginal people of North America, but did you know that they also developed their own sign language, as well as syringe needles and a secret ingredient in soda pop? Depending on where they lived, Aboriginal communities relied on their ingenuity to harness the resources available to them. Some groups, such as the Iroquois, were particularly skilled at growing and harvesting food. From them, we get corn and wild rice, as well as maple syrup. Other groups, including the Sioux and Comanche of the plains, were exceptional hunters. Camouflage, fish hooks and decoys were all developed to make the task of catching animals easier. And even games-lacrosse, hockey and volleyball -- have Native American roots. Other clever inventions and innovations include: With descriptive photos and information-packed text, this book explores eight different categories in which the creativity of First Nations peoples from across the continent led to remarkable inventions and innovations, many of which are still in use today. |

Editorial Review Product Description "Inventorship is truly the stuff from which the future will be molded. Giving us an insight into the everyday thought processes of great inventive minds, Greene’s wonderful collection of stories and ideas is a model for each of us in the art of inventiveness."–Pat Hallberg, Executive Director, National Inventors Hall of Fame "This entertaining and well-written work educates without pain and motivates the reader to learn more. It should be widely read not only by business people and entrepreneurs, but by young people, their parents, and their teachers. The lesson: Inventorship is for everyone and can change lives for the better."–Joseph N. Hankin, President, Westchester Community College "After all the scholarly books and articles about innovation and the entrepreneurial process by theorists, how refreshing it is to hear from a real live inventor holding hundreds of patents in fields as diverse as aeronautics, sailing, chess, and skiing! He has even invented a word, ‘inventorship’, to describe the process and guide us through dozens of examples. A very useful book."–John Diebold, Chairman, The JD Consulting Group, Inc.

Not bad
Interesting but fluffy
Great for all ages
Imagination and Necessity equals Invention
Very interesting stories from a prolific inventor At first I thought the author was a little egocentric... talking about all of his inventions.Then I realized that he was truly a profilic inventor.His method of telling us about the invention process was to illustrate each of the methods he used with real stories of inventions.Stories that happened (mostly) to him. It is very easy to read, and the author went out the way to get an artist to support his points with illustrations.As I read the book I became intrigued with all of his inventions.After a while I started saying to myself... "Gosh, I can't believe he invented this under those conditions." Particularly interesting was his analysis of what the people on the Titanic could have done to save the ship. I think there are better academic books about the invention process out there... but there are few that offer a look inside the mind of someone who invented so many products. John Dunbar ...
