Patently Ridiculous : Genius Inventions! - Ross

Patently Ridiculous: Scuba-diving Dogs, Beerbrellas, Musical Toothpaste and Other Patented Strokes of Genius by Richard Ross

After months of research at the U.S. Patent Office - the repository of delightfully improbable dreams - Richard Ross amassed a collection of some of the most unique, odd, and awe-inspiring patent applications seen over the last century.

The result is Patently Ridiculous, a treasure trove of wacky and wonderful real-life inventions, including:

* Nasal filters
* Self-foaming shavers
* Umbrellas with ears
* Shoelace tip holders

Illustrated with the inventors' own diagrams, this lighthearted compilation is perfect for anyone seeking a completely different take on American know-how.
