The Independent Inventor's Handbook was not only surprisingly entertaining but also has a wealth of valuable advice and information that an inventor could ever ask for. This book details some interesting tidbits from celebrity inventions to how the Blackberry got its name. I was very impressed with the depth of information on what it takes to get an idea to fruition. Any inventor looking for some help with making their ideas reality, will certainly find it in this handbook.

Perhaps, in a way, I am not the ideal person to read and review this book. I come to it with the background of a person who (perhaps like everyone else in the world) has had one or two ideas for inventions in their life, but is not particularly an inventor. I wouldn't say that this is the sort of book you sit down to just read for fun. This is definitely more of an informational book that you open up and reference when you have the need for it. That said, I have no problem particularly with the writing style or the way it's presented -- it's just that it's written for informative purposes, not for entertainment. I'd like to emphasize that I do find the book interesting; it is quite interesting from an informative standpoint. I think that -- had I an invention that I was actually serious about designing and marketing -- this book would be an extremely useful find for me. I would highly recommend it for anybody who actually does invent stuff! -- Mrs. Hall

I think that if you are seriously thinking about inventing, this book will help point you in the right direction for specialized assistance. There are lots of resources and the book ties in with a website and TV program for everyday inventors. (I have checked into neither of these, but they are metioned in the book.) If you're just interested with the notion of inventing--it could help you decide to go for it or forget about it. It is very repetitive in sections and the layout is actually quite cumbersome and distracting.
