We are surrounded by stationery: half-chewed Cristal Bics and bent paper clips, rubber bands to fiddle with or ping, blunt pencils, rubbers and Tipp-ex. They are integral parts of our everyday environment. Which of humanity’s brightest ideas didn’t start life on a scrap of paper, a Post-it, or in the margins of a notebook?

James Ward is here to tell accidental tales of invention, curious stories, brilliant designs, epic feats of procrastination and bitter rivalry.
