How Innovation Works by Matt Ridley (4th Estate and William Collins)

Very elaborated history of innovation, which is different from invention, because it is the turning of inventions into things of practical and affordable use to people.

So long as humans apply ideas, there will be innovations. 

The author provides really interesting stories and different innovation fields. He represents people behind them, because innovation is a team enterprise, it takes trial and error. 

And despite the abundant evidence that it has transformed almost everybody's lives for the better, people mostly and at first distrust them.
