About this book
Inventing for Boys is a book by A. Frederick Collins, who is described as inventor of the wireless telephone, with numerous illustrations and diagrams. A section headed A Word to the Boy says every boy is a born inventor. The writer says that to find out some new way of making or doing a thing, for this is what inventing means, is the most fascinating game that he knows of to take up a fellow's time and thought and energy.
The first chapter is headed Getting an Idea, and says that almost every one has had, at some time or other, an idea for a new invention or of how some old device could be improved. The writer says his purpose is not to tell the reader what to invent as much as it is to tell how to invent. The text says that those involved file a certificate of incorporation, and that it must contain, among other items, the name of the proposed company, the purpose for which it is formed, and the amount of the Capital stock.
