‘. . . a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the socio-economic factors that influence innovations. This book is unlike any other texts currently available as it offers a unique practical and multidisciplinary study on how inventions have occurred over the past two hundred years, affecting the growth of the economy. . . The book concludes with a very useful prologue. . . the author should be congratulated. He has provided a highly valuable contribution to the deep understanding of the dynamics of innovation, one of the most relevant topics of our global economy. From these assumptions, Patents, Inventions and the Dynamics of Innovation will be of great interest and will serve as an important point of reference for a variety of audiences, spanning from inventors themselves to patent attorneys, IP practitioners, academics and innovation economists.’
