Invented By Law: Alexander Graham Bell And The Patent That Changed America

Christopher Beauchamp debunks the myth of Alexander Graham Bell as the telephone's sole inventor, exposing that story's origins in the arguments advanced by Bell's lawyers during fiercely contested battles for patent monopoly. The courts anointed Bell father of the telephone—likely the most consequential intellectual property right ever granted.
