Download or read book The Essence of Invention written by Kieran Murphy and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet the brilliant mavericks who invented the future of medicine and saved the lives of millions. The Essence of Invention tells the story of medical inventors who have laid the foundation for modern patient care, from the development of anaesthesia and safe surgery to the advent of vaccines against smallpox, polio, and Covid-19, and how, through creativity and persistence, they have changed the world. The same kind of energy that drove Van Gogh or the Beatles can manifest itself in medicine as inventiveness and the creation of new medical devices. The field may feel very different from what is traditionally considered a creative industry, but the fundamental motivation and aspiration to create and the conviction and resilience needed to do so are the same. Dr. Murphy celebrates the creative energy of courageous men and women, honours their unique gifts, and explains how a culture of creativity and collaboration can and must be established around them to allow their talents to take flight.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invention Analysis and Claiming presents a comprehensive approach to analyzing inventions and capturing them in a sophisticated set of patent claims. A central theme is the importance of using the problem-solution paradigm to identify the "inventive concept" before the claim-drafting begins. The book's teachings are grounded in "old school" principles of patent practice that, before now, have been learned only on the job from supervisors and mentors.

Book excerpt: Meet the brilliant mavericks who invented the future of medicine and saved the lives of millions. The Essence of Invention tells the story of medical invention, from the development of anesthesia and safe surgery, through to the advent of vaccines against smallpox, polio, and Covid-19, that have changed the very foundation of patient care. Dr. Kieran Murphy, a renowned neuroradiologist and inventor in his own right, captures the mind of the inventor — their turmoil, their persistence, their rejection by their peers — and how a small percentage are eventually recognized. The same kind of energy that drove van Gogh or the Beatles can manifest in medicine as inventiveness and the creation of new medical devices. The field may be very different from what is traditionally considered a creative industry, but the fundamental energy, drive, motivation, dreaming, aspiration, belief, and resilience are the same. In The Essence of Invention, Dr. Murphy celebrates the creative energy of courageous men and women who changed the world through medical science. He honours their unique gifts, and explains how a culture of creativity and collaboration can and must be established around them to allow their talents to take flight.
Download or read book Patentability of Chemical Selection Inventions written by Hyewon Ahn and published by Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft Mbh & Company. This book was released on 2011 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This LL.M thesis is a response to the recent decisions of the German Federal Court of Justice on the patentability requirements of selection inventions, namely the Olanzapine and Escitalopram decisions. The thesis provides an overview on the technology and patenting practice, followed by the discussion of jurisprudence on the patentability requirements for selection inventions in major jurisdictions. In particular, the paper examines the novelty and the non-obviousness requirements. As the discussion on the anticipation and obviousness is more contentious in selection inventions, it discusses the issues in view of the two decisions. Post-grant impact of selection inventions and their meanings to the system of patent are explored and some comparative perspectives on selection inventions are discussed. In conclusion, by exploring the significance of granting patents on selection invention to the working of patent system, the paper provides a useful analysis in understanding patentability requirements thereof, beyond the pharmaceutical industry sector.

Download or read book The Invention of the Land of Israel written by Shlomo Sand and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a homeland and when does it become a national territory? Why have so many people been willing to die for such places throughout the twentieth century? What is the essence of the Promised Land? Following the acclaimed and controversial The Invention of the Jewish People, Shlomo Sand examines the mysterious sacred land that has become the site of the longest-running national struggle of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The Invention of the Land of Israel deconstructs the age-old legends surrounding the Holy Land and the prejudices that continue to suffocate it. Sand’s account dissects the concept of “historical right” and tracks the creation of the modern concept of the “Land of Israel” by nineteenth-century Evangelical Protestants and Jewish Zionists. This invention, he argues, not only facilitated the colonization of the Middle East and the establishment of the State of Israel; it is also threatening the existence of the Jewish state today.

Download or read book How to Fly a Horse written by Kevin Ashton and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a technology pioneer at MIT and as the leader of three successful start-ups, Kevin Ashton experienced firsthand the all-consuming challenge of creating something new. Now, in a tour-de-force narrative twenty years in the making, Ashton leads us on a journey through humanity’s greatest creations to uncover the surprising truth behind who creates and how they do it. From the crystallographer’s laboratory where the secrets of DNA were first revealed by a long forgotten woman, to the electromagnetic chamber where the stealth bomber was born on a twenty-five-cent bet, to the Ohio bicycle shop where the Wright brothers set out to “fly a horse,” Ashton showcases the seemingly unremarkable individuals, gradual steps, multiple failures, and countless ordinary and usually uncredited acts that lead to our most astounding breakthroughs. Creators, he shows, apply in particular ways the everyday, ordinary thinking of which we are all capable, taking thousands of small steps and working in an endless loop of problem and solution. He examines why innovators meet resistance and how they overcome it, why most organizations stifle creative people, and how the most creative organizations work. Drawing on examples from art, science, business, and invention, from Mozart to the Muppets, Archimedes to Apple, Kandinsky to a can of Coke, How to Fly a Horse is a passionate and immensely rewarding exploration of how “new” comes to be.

Download or read book Bottlenecks of the Patent Systems written by Tiit Tiimann and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultimate goal of patent systems is to introduce the public about new ideas and technologies through the publication of patents. The inventions of patentable quality are what the patent systems is trying to encourage. At the same time, as it has shown by the patenting history, guaranteeing patentable quality of inventions has been and is to date widely debatable and conjointly costly. The reason for this -- intellectual and intangible nature of the invention and as a result, any satisfactory legal definition of the invention, not mention the patentable one, has ever appeared. Such long time legal uncertainty in patent systems looks incredible. How is it still possible that so many parties involved in patent enforcement and prosecution issues find it possible to apply the legally undefined concept of invention, without noticing the obvious unfairness? I probably know the answer: the background of information in patenting has been and is so far “sickly”. As it turns out in the present article the main problem the patent systems encounter is that the efforts to define the invention has been controversial. Namely, participants in patent systems have not come to agreement what is novel in the patentable invention, whether the inventive idea or its practical application, i.e. its physical embodiment. Undoubtedly, if to take into account the conception of 'intellectual property' (see WIPO's Intellectual Property Handbook) and the factual knowledge that virtually in patenting all inventions can be understood as improvements of prior art, then the real patentable invention signifies underlying unique information representing a new inventive idea in the inventor's head. Indeed the solution of concrete technical problem in an inventive process identifies de facto this new inventive idea and I find in all seriousness that mentioned information in accordance with the problem-solution paradigm should definitely be reflected from the independent patent claim coinciding with the legal definition of concrete patentable invention.In the said light I am sure that the patent claim, as the heart of a patent and defining the limits of exactly what the patent does, and does not cover, is supposed to be precise, succinct, and without from superfluous descriptive and contextual material so that readers can more easily identify and understand essence of the invention. Thus the patent claim should be only one sentence long and to determine more specifically the legal definition of the concrete patentable invention. It means, we should not continue to tolerate the situation, where the patent claims have time criticized as vague (not clearly or fully explained), unreadable (very difficult to read), excessively (much more than is reasonable) long, impossible (extremely difficult) to search, and dreadful (very unpleasant) to interpret. My understandings in the present article “Bottlenecks of the patent systems” will give opportunity to prevent mentioned criticism if we will at that follow decisively by the intrinsic principles of intellectual property and of patentable invention, which you should admit, have not been intelligibly implemented yet in patent systems. After all you cannot reasonably have a test where the core concepts -- invention as well as patentable one, used to evaluate patenting, yourselves are legally undefined.
Download or read book A Patent System for the 21st Century written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-10-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. patent system is in an accelerating race with human ingenuity and investments in innovation. In many respects the system has responded with admirable flexibility, but the strain of continual technological change and the greater importance ascribed to patents in a knowledge economy are exposing weaknesses including questionable patent quality, rising transaction costs, impediments to the dissemination of information through patents, and international inconsistencies. A panel including a mix of legal expertise, economists, technologists, and university and corporate officials recommends significant changes in the way the patent system operates. A Patent System for the 21st Century urges creation of a mechanism for post-grant challenges to newly issued patents, reinvigoration of the non-obviousness standard to quality for a patent, strengthening of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, simplified and less costly litigation, harmonization of the U.S., European, and Japanese examination process, and protection of some research from patent infringement liability.
