Abstract: Specialists of innovation usually talk about computers, automobiles, aeronautics, medicine or biotechnology. There was no book on innovations in techniques related to women and their bodies. Teresa Riordan, a science journalist specialized in the study of patents has taken up the challenge of writing the missing book. The result is a gripping surprise with an original, offbeat view of innovation, its nature and processes.
