Om denne bog

Sometimes an invention is so good that no one will believe you. There you are, with a fabulous new piece of technology that is worth millions and you are still starving to death because you are a 'crackpot'. Well, if you are smart, like the inventor in this story, you learn your lesson and start telling people your invention is just something they know and use every day, just a bit better. Sure it's a lie but people have to believe before they will part with the big bucks. If it works, it ain't stupid. And this inventor is definitely not stupid. Randall Garrett gives us a wonderfully wry story about human nature in his unique and very entertaining way. Listen and enjoy.
