You've just invented a new technology, a must-have product. So now what? Patent it? Manufacture it? Sell it? If you're like most would-be Edison's, chances are your stroke of genius will collect dust in the garage (or your hard drive), waiting for you to plot your next move.

Fear not, intrepid creator, successful inventor and author, Ronald Docie, shares more than 25 years of valuable insight and experience in THE INVENTOR'S BIBLE, a guide to taking your ideas from concept to profit in record time. Using real case studies as examples, this definitive handbook provides very valuable information about marketing, licensing, and selling your invention -- how to figure your invention's worth, who to trust, which companies might want your ideas, and what steps to take first.

“The process of commercializing your invention and receiving royalties does not have to be complicated. Mostly, it involves good, old-fashioned common sense; a realistic, methodical approach; the ability to communicate effectively with others; and plenty of hard work and perseverance. This book will help you focus your common sense and develop a realistic, workable plan for commercializing your invention.” -- from the Introduction

Praise for The Inventor's Bible

"Inventors should add The Inventor's Bible to their bookshelves immediately, but be certain to keep it within easy reach. This book is a powerful compilation of useful advice from one who's already been down the rocky road to invention commercialization. Ron Docie has a lot of experience to share, and he does so in an organized fashion."
-- Don Kelly
CEO, Academy of Applied Science, Inc.; former Director, U. S. Patent and Trademark Office

"I've been an inventor for over 30 years and I believe this book could have saved me much time and heartbreak had I read it when I was beginning my invention career. Please read it and take notes! It is a God send!"
-- Stanley I. Mason Jr.
Inventor of granola bars and disposable diapers and holder of fifty-five patents.

" The Inventor's Bible is an excellent collection of practical information useful to all inventors, based on the author's personal, extensive experience. The text is not presented from a legal viewpoint but rather follows essentially a business and financial path, which an inventor who hopes to be financially successful should consider."
-- Don Banner
Former U.S. Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks

"This remarkable and useful book is also a pleasure to read. ... Inventors who read The Inventor's Bible and follow its step-by-step instructions can now more easily reap the rewards of their own ingenuity. Mr. Docie has covered virtually every facet of invention: securing proprietary rights, patents, licensing, and production. A must for inventors."
-- Hugh Downs
Network news anchor

"Docie presents a refreshingly frank approach to invention development, protection, and marketing. His advice on 'tiered risk' alone may save inventors--both neophytes and seasoned--thousands of dollars as well as invaluable time. His book is a must for the desk of every serious inventor."
-- Jack Lander
President, United Inventors Association and VP, Yankee Invention Exposition and Yankee Entrepreneur Workshops

"Ron has outdone himself! In my opinion The Inventors Bible can be considered the good book for inventors. What you have here is an excellent guide with rock-solid information that will definitely steer inventors on the right course. But it's also intertwined with Ron's personal experiences, which will help inventors be more realistic. Whether you're thinking of inventing or are already a professional in the inventing field, Ron's book is easy to read and he covers a lot of territory very well. Chock full of information, tips, words of wisdom, and resources, The Inventor's Bible will teach, prod, and motivate readers."
-- Stephen Paul Gnass
President/Executive Director, National Congress of Inventor Organizations and Founder, Invention Convention trade show

"The Inventor's Bible takes readers from Genesis through Revelation in the convoluted world of inventing. This is the book that every inventor needs to read. Ron's been there and done that, and now he shares his expertise. Before spending a dime on patents or services, get this book."
-- Ed Sobey
Ph.D., President, Northwest Invention Center

"I can recommend The Inventor's Bible without reservation as a most valuable resource for the independent inventor who is looking to develop and bring an invention to market. The Inventor's Bible clearly reflects in-depth and long-time experience in the field of invention development and marketing. It is well written, very readable, and quite thorough in describing what needs to be done by the independent inventor . . . to successfully get an invention into the marketplace. The 'how-to' aspects of The Inventor's Bible are extraordinarily detailed."
-- George Lewett
Former Director of Technology Evaluation and Assessment, U.S. Department of Commerce

"Rarely does a book come along that provides an accurate and thorough explanation of the invention process. The real life stories and quotes not only provide for interesting reading, but also adequately warn inventors of potential pitfalls commonly encountered. I unconditionally recommend The Inventor's Bible to all inventors and businesses."
-- Michael S. Neustel
Patent Attorney and Director, National Inventor Fraud Center, Inc.

"This is the definitive book on product licensing for the independent inventor!"
-- Ed Zimmer
The Entrepreneur Network
