Creativity cannot rely on the inspiration of genius, but on a set of practical and effective methods. So far, a set of methods recognized around the world is the TRIZ invention principle.
In the 1950s, Soviet naval patent examiners came up with a set of magical universal creative processes - the TRIZ invention principle. Before the 1990s, this theory was kept secret as a state secret. It was not unveiled until the collapse of the Soviet Union. It immediately caused a huge response in Western countries. Many organizations such as Boeing, Airbus, Ford, Samsung, and NASA introduced it one after another. Now it has become a required course for engineers around the world.
The TRIZ invention principle is a creative problem-solving method extracted from the analysis and verification of millions of patented inventions. This set of methods uses 40 invention principles to deeply learn experiences and lessons from other fields, guide users on the path to the essence of the problem, and then provide techniques to directly solve the problem. TRIZ can be called a "skill" for engineers and technicians to make great innovations. Using this sledgehammer to solve the troubles in daily life can have the effect of cutting through the mess quickly.
This book introduces the 40 invention principles of TRIZ with very creative illustrations, and summarizes many troubles in daily life into 39 types. It uses a large number of common things as examples to simply and clearly explain the logic of one-to-one correspondence between problems and solutions. Almost all problems can be easily solved.
Open this book, master a set of magical creative methods, break through your own thinking stereotypes, and start a journey of imaginative thinking.
Reader comments
The TRIZ invention principles provided in this book are so practical! It is like a "magic knife" that can help us easily solve various troubles in life. The author uses creative illustrations and common examples to make complex theories easy to understand. I used to feel that invention and creation were far away from me, but after reading this book, I found that everyone can become an inventor as long as they master the methods. Just like what is said in the book, "Invention methods must be scientific." We must break through our thinking stereotypes and try to use these principles to solve problems. I believe there will be many surprises waiting for us.
