A wonderful work including many letters of Joubert (to and from his friends/lovers) of which very few have been translated. Kelves writes for the non-scientist, and does an excellent job of explaining how these various machines work, how they were perceived at the time, the economics of their development and marketing (Kelves never forgets that, for better or worse, medicine and inventing have always been businesses), and their changes in perception and use over time. Bettyann Holtzmann Kelves Naked to the Bone: Medical Imaging in the Twentieth Century exactly fit the bill. It is great that someone with his scientific background has taken the time to conceptualize and write an interdisciplinary book like this that can inspire artists, too. However, the intellectual gambits the author uses are well worth it.Especially with the guidance of a decent professor well versed in the subject, this book can serve as a great source of theory and application in fluid mechanics. It is not a "fun" read, but one that will focus anyone on being attentive to their involvement in their surroundings.. All is good.. Did people actually buy lead lined underwear?This book talks about idea-generating techniques and creativity tools from historical, critical and personal perspective, shows the relationship between them, and illustrates them with numerous simple and more complex examples and drawings, including actual patented inventions. For example, penicillin could have been discovered much earlier if people paid attention to their predecessors. It shows the relationship between the natural world, art, and invention. The book also shows the application of such techniques to problem-solving, from quirky puzzles to practical applications. It touches on the patenting process. The techniques vary from systematic to random. Some specific topics include constrained creativity, jury-rigging MacGyver style, lateral thinking, and taking advantage of old sources. This book should be useful to engineers, scientists, students, inventors, as well as everyday problem solvers and tinkerers.
