INVENTORS, AMAZING

Read about a woman who invented a revolutionary hair treatment. Learn why a bed made another woman an inventor. Meet a man who worked along with Thomas Edison and patented some of his own electric novelties. Ever look closely at your shoe? You might want to do so after reading about a man named Jan Matzeliger. Meet a college student who turned an assignment into an invention. Wonder what happens in the patent office? Well - we've found someone to give you the " scoop." Worried about your eyes? Then, you might want to read up on Patricia Bath, and listen to her answers for the interview. We'll also have an article on daguerreotypes (early pictures). With so many illustrations in FOOTSTEPS in black-and-white, this article is sure to please - and give you some answers at the same time.
