The Eureka Method: How to Think Like an Inventor
by Dr. John Hershey

“In my experience, the passion to invent is stirred by two things: dissatisfaction with an existing product or service, or a dream and desire to create something entirely new. Over my career I have developed a process for identifying consumer needs and creating unique, patentable solutions that are relevant in the marketplace. I call this the Eureka Method. The Eureka Method is a mental discipline that can be learned and practiced to help you produce a Eureka! moment. You may call it an epiphany or a flash of insight, brilliance, or creative genius. It’s that moment when an inventive solution finally crystallizes in your imagination.”

Check out the awesome GeekDad review from Wired of the latest edition of Gordon McComb’s Robot Builder’s Bonanza…

Robot Builder’s Bonanza by Gordon McComb makes no assumptions, and that’s what I love about this kind of book. It’s an all-encompassing book that literally starts by defining what a robot is (and isn’t), defines its parts, explains what’s available in kit form and what’s available in terms of components and new technologies. This is the 4th Edition, and it’s been updated to include the latest tech and tricks available to hobbyists. It’s a monster of a book, I kid you not — 48 chapters and 4 appendices. But after reading the entire book, I am convinced that this is THE book that anyone wanting to learn to build and program robots must have on their shelves.”
