Abstract :
A method of creative inventing is described that, unlike other systems, is more applicable to individual than to group effort. The heart of this system is the process of abstracting from each subunit of the proposed device those properties and characteristics that will help the would-be inventor visualize the functional relationship of one subunit to another.
