Inventive Engineering: Knowledge and Skills for Creative Engineers: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Inventive Engineering: Knowledge and Skills for Creative Engineers" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Inventive Engineering is an emerging engineering science focused on the conceptual designing processes whereby creative designs are developed. Its core concepts are too often unknown and even surprising, but they are also feasible and can be learned, leading to potentially patentable designs. Inventive engineers have a tremendous competitive advantage over other engineers, because they have gone beyond practical and analytical intelligence and have learned how to be creative. Inventive Engineering: Knowledge and Skills for Creative Engineers has its roots in engineering, psychology, history, systems engineering, political science, and computer science. It presents a body of knowledge integrated from these fields. It provides: Background knowledge, which will motivate and prepare students for learning inventive engineering A general outline of Inventive Engineering, with an understanding of the conceptual designing process and its various stages Guidance on several inventive designing methods set in their cultural context to encourage students to develop practical skills for their use

Foreword

Ours is a rapidly evolving professionone that demands a high level of specialized knowledge and a voracious intellectual appetite capable of keeping pace with technological advances. Perhaps the most critical attributes to seek and nurture are our ability to lead effectively, act ethically, communicate clearly, and manage efficiently. Engineers who possess these skills will not only enjoy greater personal success but will also make more meaningful contributions to their businesses and to society as a whole.

Beyond what we know, Arciszewski invites readers to consider why our expertise matters, and how we approach these changing demands. Knowledge is the bedrock, but fertile imaginations are the topsoil where innovation takes root. Creativity and the ability to apply knowledge in novel ways become differentiating factors in the talent marketplace.

Arciszewski continues to advance this vital conversation about the future of engineering with clear writing, compelling ideas, and practical advice. At the same time, he continues to fearlessly color outside the lines, inviting us to see the big picture from a new perspective. He invites engineers to be as creative as we are analytical. He embraces a refreshingly holistic approach, asking us to focus first on rewarding and creative work that fuels personal satisfaction and genuine happiness. This, in turn, leads to career advancement. Too many of us have that equation reversed, and too many young people start their engineering careers focused on the wrong outcomes. While Arciszewskis previous book was written for instructors and academic administrators, this edition speaks directly to engineering students. The two create a unique synergistic unity.

Arciszewski coined the name Inventive Engineering in the 1990s while teaching courses by the same name at George Mason University. The name reflects a new way of framing deeply rooted concepts for a modern era. In his typical style, Arciszewski offers a comprehensive explanation of how this term found its way into the modern lexicon of professional engineering, examining its roots in cognitive, philosophical, and biological underpinnings. He traces the lineage of inventive engineering from ancient Asia to the European Renaissance and from the writings of Greek philosophers to the works of futurist Richard Florida.

In a demonstration of boundary-spanning thought leadership, Arciszewski invites readers to think more broadly about our profession. He challenges us to demand more of ourselves and those we prepare for careers in engineering, and he expands our lexicon with language and ideas that need to become more commonplace in engineering.

Everyone who reads this will interpret the words and ideas with different points of view. All will be invited to lift their noses out of the blueprints, seek opportunities for experimentation, and think about how we can seek better ways to serve humanity.

Preface

I have been studying, practicing, and teaching Inventive Engineering for the last 45 years. As a result of that, I have discovered a secret, which is the key to becoming an inventive engineer. This secret has compelled me to write this book. Learning about the methods is necessary but grossly insufficient. A student must undergo a transition from an analyst (specializing in solving analytical problems) to a person also capable of developing new engineering ideas, or inventions. This transformation requires understanding the process and acquiring a balanced body of knowledge, including not only knowledge about methods but also my unique integrated knowledge with roots in several domains. This second kind of knowledge is absolutely critical to motivate the student and to prepare him or her for the most important transition in life.

The book answers three fundamental questions: Why learn inventive engineering? (Chapter 1), What is the fundamental knowledge behind inventive engineering and what is our new science? (Chapters 2 through 5), and finally, How to practice inventive engineering? (Chapters 6 through 10). The book has its roots in engineering, systems science, cognitive psychology, heuristics, history, and political science. The presented knowledge is integrated as a result of my years of interdisciplinary studies and cooperation with many scholars in various areas.
