And Suddenly the Inventor Appeared/the Art of Inventing

THE ART OF INVENTING is the first practical book published in the United States on the subject of technical creativity. The author shows that the process of solving technical problems can be easily learned by anyone, could be an important tool on the job & actually can be a lot of fun. In a humorous manner & layman's terms the author presents basic elements of the Inventive Problem Solving Theory (TRIZ is the Russian abbreviation). The theory was developed by the author in the former Soviet Union & during the last 40 years evolved into science of technical creativity. It is being taught in more than 300 schools & learning institutions & to people of various ages & backgrounds abroad & finally even in the U.S.A. Today, Wayne State University in Detroit is the first American institution to offer courses on technical creativity using Altshuller's methodology. In this book, the reader can work through 78 real problems & learn to apply 27 practical tools & techniques to solve them. This book is a must for any inventor or a person who enjoys to work out technical problems. I am positive that the reader will thoroughly enjoy this book.Altov, Henry is the author of 'And Suddenly the Inventor Appeared/the Art of Inventing' with ISBN 9780964074019 and ISBN 096407401X.
