The Patent Files: Dispatches from the Frontiers of Invention
David Lindsay
First edition
From the author of "House of Invention" comes this rumination on cutting edge of science: a magnetic train that requires no outside energy source; solar-powered interplanetary travel; an air-purifying helmet; and a device to reduce radioactivity. And just as engrossing as these inventions is the author's exploration of the eccentricity of the invention subculture itself.
