Reinventing the Wheel is the riveting, behind-the-scenes story of the eccentric, cocksure genius Dean Kamen and the team of brilliant engineers who invented and developed the Segway Human Transporter.
When Kamen conceived the two-wheeled vehicle known to many by its code name, Ginger, he promised it would transform the face of personal transportation. But when this charismatic and driven inventor attempted to become an entrepreneur, a colossal power struggle ensued. Here, Steve Kemper takes you along on the wild ride that moved this invention from idea to marketplace. He was there to chronicle the flashes of discovery, the setbacks, the impassioned engineers, the high-flying investors, the multimillion-dollar misjudgments, the intrigues that ousted some of the project’s original leaders, the triumphs large and small. Reinventing the Wheel puts readers inside Kamen’s world of high-tech development, where nerve and ingenuity collide with high finance and the bottom line.
