This legendary book, And Suddenly the Inventor Appeared, was first translated and published in English in 1990. The translator, Lev Shulyak - an accomplished inventor, engineer and TRIZ expert - published the book at his own expense in order to bring it into American classrooms. The new edition, extensively revised by Shulyak and editor Steve Rodman, includes material not found in the original translation.

Seven different stories, from two of the former Soviet Union's best-known writers, that probe the most difficult and rewarding explorations: the mind's leap into the unknown in search of new theoretical discoveries. Science itself is the main subject of these stories - man's interaction with science, his pursuit of it, and his endless fascination with it. The authors lead us through the common yet alien terrain of the human mind to tell us as much about who and what we are as about where we are headed. These are the innovative and poetic tales that created a whole new genre of science fiction - far reaching, visionary fantasy.
