"Inventors & Inventions" by Henry Robinson is a comprehensive guide to the world of invention, written in the early 20th century. This publication provides insights into the various aspects of inventing, including machine design, financing, marketing, and legal protection, targeting aspiring inventors and those interested in the creative process of invention. The book highlights the challenges faced by inventors and emphasizes the essential skills needed for successful invention. The text is structured into numerous chapters, each focusing on different facets of the inventing process. Robinson discusses the traits of successful inventors, the importance of understanding the market, and the need for adequate financial backing to transform an idea into a tangible product. He warns about the pitfalls and exploitation that inventors often encounter, urging them to seek legal protection for their inventions. Throughout the book, Robinson combines practical advice with illustrations of celebrated inventors, capturing the glory and struggles inherent in the realm of innovation. This work serves both as a motivational tool for prospective inventors and a critical commentary on the societal and legal frameworks surrounding intellectual property at the time.
