Summary: This book covers it all
Comment: I purchased this book and the highly-rated "Turn Your Idea or Invention into Millions". If you buy only one book, THIS IS THE ONE. The other book--only okay. I have seven utility patents that were gained through working with a patent attorney, and this book has backed up the good advice I've gotten in the past and shown many other angles and items to the patent and sale process that I wasn't aware of, until now. I highly recommend this book--it's a great reference and an easy read.

Summary: help, i am a little confused!
Comment: The author separates background which includes technical field, prior art and advantages from summary which merely summarizes the invention. However, many patents actually include advantages as a part of the summary. So which is the better way of organizing the patent? Is the author describing the correct/up-to-date way of drafting/organizing the patent?
Its a great book nonetheless, i am just confused about a few technical details. Please help if you can. thanks in advance!

Summary: Information outdated
Comment: I bought the 12th Edition in Feb. 2008 - suppose to be the latest revision at that time. Lots of information in there are actually out-of-date. For example, the Disclosure Document Program described in it has already been terminated by the Patent office. I followed its instructions in there and then ended up wasting lots of time.
Total waste of time and money. Well, may be the book is not that bad itself but just the rapid changing nature of the information it's covering. Afterwards I found all the information I needed from the Internet. It's better off just find them on the Web instead of depending on this book.

Summary: One of the best
Comment: This is an excellent book where the author puts everything in an orderly manner and feeds the reader with all his vast knowledge
Customer Rating:
Summary: The best of its type
Comment: I wasted thousands of dollars and hours I could have used towards success if I had read "Patent it Yourself" BEFORE I became a serious inventor. This was my third edition to purchase which is testimony enough.
