香飘万家小吃培训:一个世界名人的英文介绍

Over Five Million Pages of Documents... chronicle one of the most creative technical innovators in the history of the world—Thomas Alva Edison. Thanks to the tireless work of the Thomas A. Edison Papers at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, the daily record of Edison's extraordinary life and achievements is coming to light.

While Edison’s genius spawned many seminal inventions of the modern world, his greatest invention may have been the first industrial research laboratory—a prototype for today’s large corporate research and development centers.

Edison was also a savvy businessman and shrewd manager with enormous talent for transferring technology from laboratory to market. He designed economic considerations into nearly all of his inventions and recognized the critical role that promotion and hustle play in a product’s success. His insight sets a powerful, instructive model for corporate leaders even today.
