Genrich Altshuller's The Innovation Algorithm is a milestone in the development of the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ). It is the result of more than 20 years of research and analysis. Here, Altshuller details ARIZ, TRIZ's problem solving algorithm that can produce innovation and creativity of the highest order. Saturated with profound thoughts, insights, and convincing examples, this book is regarded by many as Altshuller's magnum opus, his handbook for creative and technological revolution.

This book is the eloquent vision of a brilliant thinker, scientist and writer at the peak of his power.

"Enthusiastically written, it takes the reader to the wellsprings of engineering creativity. The unique and powerful TRIZ thought process, so startlingly presented in this book, is illuminated by numerous practical examples gleaned from various fields of engineering. Based on my own experience, the book can profusely benefit those engaged in a search for breakthrough technological developments."
Victor R. Fey, Managing Partner in The TRIZ Group, and Adjunct Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Wayne State University

"A 'must read' book for any individual who wants to become a TRIZ specialist and deeply understand the concepts of Ideality, Technical Contradiction, Evolution of Technology and other important issues. For TRIZ, this book is as important as Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica for Physics. This book completely changed my life."
Boris Zlotin, Chief Scientist of Ideation International, Inc., USA

"TRIZ is a treasure."
