Gadget Nation: A Journey Through The Eccentric World of Invention

Have you ever heard of bird diapers?
Interested in a talking toilet paper dispenser?
What about a motorized ice cream cone?
A handle for carrying your turkey around the kitchen?
Looking for a Kosher Lamp?

These aren't gag gadgets from some lame late night talk show skit. They are actual, real products that you can buy today. Maybe you already have?

Americans love their gadgets--and Gadget Nation takes you behind the scenes and introduces you to the men and women who have spent countless hours and money, (in some cases cashing in their 401(k)), trying to turn their gadget idea into a gadget bonanza.

Steve Greenberg, dubbed The Innovation Insider, travels the country seeking out clever off-beat new products. His journey through the underbelly of American invention has brought him face to face with hundreds of garage inventors. Steve has spent years exploring and observing this often bizarre slice of Americana. And while most of us might look at these products and wonder, "Why didn't I think of that?" Steve will tell you why these people did.

Featuring more than 100 quirky innovations from garage inventors across the nation, this visual showcase captures America's can-do spirit and creative energy.

Gadget Nation is available at www.gadgetnation.net, at Barnes & Noble Bookstores and other fine bookstores nationwide.

A fun book about "off-beat" inventions, Gadget Nation deserves an "off-beat" music video, right? Author Steve Greenberg ignores good judgment and puts aside his self-respect--as he creates a music video to help spread the word about his book. Check out Steve's music video:

(Maybe Steve should stick to writing books?)
