Summary: | "Many well-known innovations and discoveries, both modern and historical, have Swedish origins. This book presents technical products and methods which represented a sufficiently high degree of innovation to be granted patents and which went on to achieve great commercial success. As a result, many of these innovations have since become familiar household names, whereas others have played an important role in the business sector. Author Kjell Sedig provides us with a valuable insight into some of the more recent Swedish innovations that have won international acclaim. His account also takes us back to the days of Sweden's “Universal Geniuses” and their discoveries and inventions." -- Back cover. |
