Eine Chronik der weltweit berühmtesten Erfindungen und Ideen, die uns allen (und auch ihren Erfindern - finanziell) das Leben leichter gemacht haben. Die Autoren erzählen auf scharfsinnig-detaillierte und liebenswert-exzentrische Weise die merkwürdigen Entstehungsgeschichten berühmter Produkte. Sie erläutern nicht nur, wie diese nützlichen und bisweilen auch kuriosen Erfindungen unser Leben verändert haben, sondern gehen auch auf die geschäftlichen Hintergründe wie Produktion und Vertrieb ein. Insgesamt eine bunte und faszinierende Anthologie genialen Erfindertums. Insightful, detailed, and always quirky, Why Didn't I Think of That chronicles the odd origins of famous products, explores how these inventions changed our lives, and reveals the business side of their production and distribution. We learn of inventors from all walks of life striking it rich with unlikely contraptions that range from the practical-Tupperware and Tampax-to the curiously inane-silly putty and Barbie dolls.
Ben & Jerry originally wanted to start a bagel business, but they couldn't afford the bagel-making machine?
_ The Slinky(r) toy was born aboard a World War II battleship?
_ Band-Aids(r) were invented by a husband to help his accident-prone wife dress her own cuts and bruises at home?
_ The idea for Velcro(r) came from cockleburs that got stuck on an engineer's wool trousers and in his dog's fur?
Ever wonder how anyone came up with the idea for a product you couldn't imagine living without? Familiar products like Velcro(r) ,disposable diapers, Post-It Notes(r) ,and coffee filters. Read this book and you'll discover - once more - that truth is indeed often stranger than fiction. You'll also see that coming up with a million-dollar idea isn't as difficult as you think. This collection of entrepreneurs ranges from housewives to PhDs.
