How to Patent an Idea or Invention: An Easy-To-Read Guide for the Process of Getting a Patent or 'Patent Pending' Provisional Patent (How to Get a Patent)

By J.P. Schafer

So you've got the next breakthrough invention! With your new idea that's poised to take the market by storm, you don't want anyone beating you to the punch. Nor do you want any tag-along imitators or giant corporations claiming your idea as their own. A patent is a temporary government-issued monopoly that prevents others from making, using, or selling your product. Holding a patent on an invention grants you the authority to issue licenses to others (individuals or companies) who want to make and sell your product. This book is designed to give you a solid fundamental understanding of this involved (and at times, complicated) process. If you're invention is a good one, then you're off to a running start, but 95% of the potential for success hinges on how you go about procuring your patent and finding partners to help you make and sell your product. This book will help you better understand the patenting process by providing step-by-step instructions on the how, when, and where of patenting.
