Book Description
Is the world ready for a tie pin that can be eaten in case of sudden hunger? Or a railroad train that avoids collisions by climbing on top of the opposing train? Or a privy seat that will throw to the ground anyone who tries to stand on it? Or a man's hat that will automatically tip itself in greeting when the wearer nods slightly? All these--and more--are inventions on which patents have actually been granted by the United States Patent Office, and which authors Brown and Jeffcott have unearthed for our edification, entertainment, wonder, and at times bewilderment.

Book Description
Aware that the readers like a scientific array, the author strived to satiate this overlooked desirability. The mosaic of topics offered here, was for addressing this forgotten craving. Studying the invented over the years, showed how inventiveness was affected by fiction, intuition, deliberate thinking and the tabooed. Though unlooked for, the author came up with a new "Classification Of Inventions." The connoted proved that inventiveness could be learned. Besides inventing the materialistic, man was also enthused to invent the spiritualistic. This led the author to discuss our changing views on Mythopoeia, Religion, the Expiration of Man, our Distopian Cultures and our global insociability. Thus and so, these subjects were an appropriated connubiality between the materialistic and the established by fuliginous credos. His contrived methodologies, to name a few comprised inventions for: collecting spilt oil lost to the sea; desalting sea water; protecting our affluent and the influential from being spied on or targeted by snipers; severing bloodlessly our skin folds hence winning the battle of the flap. Reluctant to leave his inventions to oblivion or plagiarism, he chose to share them with his readers and to leave them behind for the indulgers of coming generations. Credentials though important, yet intuition as instanced know no boundries for the insighted.
