How did the table fork acquire a fourth tine? What advantage
does the Phillips-head screw have over its single-grooved
predecessor? Why does the paper clip look the way it does?
What makes Scotch tape Scotch? In this delightful book

of us count on but rarely contemplate, including such icons of

irritation, and not necessity, is the mother of invention. em em
