Synopsis
This book explores the systems and dynamics that motivate and influence human innovation and invention. It places particular emphasis on the tension between encouraging invention through the patent system, and society’s need to keep the benefits of innovation from being hoarded away by monopolies. The book analyzes the inventor’s unique and essential role in the development of society, and argues that safeguarding their rights and encouraging their creativity is paramount to the advancement of civilization. The author contends that a strong patent system is an effective way to strike a balance between these interests, acknowledging that there will always be tension between the need to stimulate the production of new information and the risk of creating short-term monopolies.
