At Work With Thomas Edison
by Blaine McCormick
Thomas Edison is most often remembered as an ingenious inventor, however, history has overlooked the fact that he was also a talented businessman. "At Work with Thomas Edison" seeks to revive his forgotten business legacy by giving modern managers the tools they need to break loose from Corporate America?s innovation-squelching mantra of efficiency, standardization, and control. Edison?s techniques for raising capital, managing the process of innovation, and promoting radically new products were unsurpassed in his day. He became America?s first high-tech entrepreneur by building an invention factory that spawned the phonograph, the light bulb, motion pictures, and much more.
