Eugene Shteyn's Blog

I use this blog to gather information and thoughts about invention and innovation, the subjects I've been teaching at Stanford University Continuing Studies Program since 2005. The next course is Principles of Invention and Innovation (Summer '13). Our book "Scalable Innovation" is now available for pre-orders on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Scalable-Innovation-Inventors-Entrepreneurs-Professionals/dp/1466590971/
