Description
Excerpt from How to Make Inventions: Or, Inventing as a Science and an Art, a Practical Guide for Inventors
By stud of Chemistry, many become chemists of Botany, botanists and so on, and hy study of the science of Invention, it is reasonable to conjecture that many may be better prepared to make inventions; hence the leading title of this book, which is primarily intended for those who are desirous of becoming systematic inventors and of knowing all that inventors should know and for scientists and curiosity readers secondarily. If the leading title were The Science of Invention, the latter class of men would be attracted to the book more than the former which is not so desirable, because the former by their inventions can be of more service to mankind.
The general style adopted in this book is that of a lecture, and therefore, it is hoped that the use of personal pronouns may be overlooked.
