This is a story book. A story book about over 50 real inventors who each made at least $1 million from their invention efforts. The stories are about everyday people that figured out what it would take then pursued their goals one step at a time until success was achieved. True, not all started from your current position, some started from better ones and some from much worse. And, of course, not all steps were successful, some were missteps that had to be recovered from. That is one of the strengths of this book, it identifies the missteps and explains why they were missteps 
This second edition is thoroughly brought up to date to not only tell more of the stories since the first edition but to add some new stories and, of course, to bring all the facts up to date with patent law changes through 2002, etc. The stories tell how everyday people not only had invention ideas but how they went from idea to market success. Not all the paths were the same and the book discusses the differences and the lessons learned therefrom.

Alan R Tripp married three times: First when he eloped, a second time in a double ceremony with the bride’s sister, and a third time when he renewed his vows. Each time it was to the same woman: Maggie. While their friends wondered how they could stay married so long when they were so different, that’s precisely what made it work. In this unconventional biography, Alan pays tribute to his wife’s take-charge attitude and essence with a series of vignettes that will make you think, laugh, and shake your head in wonder. How Maggie combined marriage, business, teaching and public speaking with strong feminism will inspire you to “go for it” in life…and never to settle for less than what you know you can be.
