| Summary | "How to Succeed as an Inventor" by Goodwin Brooke Smith is a practical guide on the art of inventing, written in the early 20th century. This publication offers a roadmap for aspiring inventors, detailing the steps necessary to create successful inventions, the importance of patents, and the business strategies required to bring those inventions to market. The book emphasizes that with patience, knowledge, and creativity, anyone can make valuable contributions to society through invention. The opening of the book sets a motivational tone, highlighting the boundless opportunities for inventors in a rapidly evolving world. It addresses common misconceptions about the limits of invention and encourages readers from all walks of life—mechanics, homemakers, scientists—to think innovatively. Smith introduces the idea that, contrary to the belief that there’s "nothing new under the sun," modern civilization continuously creates new needs and wants, thereby fostering endless opportunities for invention. The initial chapters lay the groundwork for understanding the market, emphasizing the necessity of diligent market research and practical demonstrations before seeking patents.
