The problems we face in the 21st century require innovative thinking from all of us. Be it students, academics, business researchers of government policy makers. Hopes for improving our healthcare, food supply, community safety and environmental sustainability depend on the pervasive application of research solutions. The research heroes who take on the immense problems of our time face bigger than ever challenges, but if they adopt potent guiding principles and effective research lifecycle strategies, they can produce the advances that will enhance the lives of many people. These inspirational research leaders will break free from traditional thinking, disciplinary boundaries, and narrow aspirations. They will be bold innovators and engaged collaborators, who are ready to lead, yet open to new ideas, self-confident, yet empathetic to others. In this book, Ben Shneiderman recognizes the unbounded nature of human creativity, the multiplicative power of teamwork, and the catalytic effects of innovation. He reports on the growing number of initiatives to promote more integrated approaches to research so as to promote the expansion of these efforts. It is meant as a guide to students and junior researchers, as well as a manifesto for senior researchers and policy makers, challenging widely-held beliefs about how applied innovations evolve and how basic breakthroughs are made, and helping to plot the course towards tomorrow's great advancements.

Using Google Super Vote to Create The Super States of America is all about how to use the latest Internet Voting technology to save this country and later the world from the rule of the "Puny and Undersized Brain Trust." Google Super-Vote is used currently to choose the viewer's favorite contestants to be the next American Idol. We can use this same Internet Technology to select from a wider range of candidates and a wider range of ideas. I became interested in real democracy in America when I was asked by President Nixon to join his highly immoral, unethical, and highly destructive military machine and participate in the horror known as Viet Nam. It was this most perplexing moment in my life that made me realize there had to be a better way to conduct the affairs of what I and many millions of other people all over the world considered to be the greatest country of all time, and this decision not our finest hour. Everyone I knew and millions of Americans, were protesting against this war. Yet, one man, Lyndon Johnson and then his successor Richard Nixon defied the will of the vast majority of American people and decided to have his little war despite public opinion, citing 'The Silent Majority'. According to Nixon, most people supported him by their silence. Until the invention of the Internet, we had no voice, so they still can consider us a 'Silent Majority' and much of the evil in this world is perpetrated even today under this banner. With Google Super-Vote and the rest of the Internet's wonderful and amazing technology the MAJORITY need not, nor can be silent any longer. Voting on the Internet is an idea whose time has come. Let's allow our greatest minds at Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter, etc. put together the best type of democracy we can have. In History, there are moments like this only once in a lifetime. If the vast majority of the reading public can support this idea, the vast majority of the American people will always be the winners. Google is perhaps the single greatest influence on our lives in the past few years more so than any other single entity. Recently Google has ventured into Immortality, Electric cars that drive themselves, Fiber-Optics, TV, movies, music and much more. Why not allow this amazing group of talented and highly innovative engineers re-design our system of government so that America can once again regain her former glory as the best and most beloved nation on Earth? Google's corporate motto is 'Do No Evil'. And, though, this motto expresses, a highly unambitious approach, at least they strive to do no evil every day. With Google making the Super-Vote technology available to all of the voting public in America today, they will be able to change their motto to 'Do Lots of Good'. The motto of this book - if a book could have a motto - would be "Let every citizen, every corporation leave the world a better place than how they found it." For even a corporate entity, which the United States Supreme Court has declared to be a 'Living Person'. My goal as an author is to accomplish at least this much in my life. If you share this goal with me this book will show you the most impactful, the highest and best way in which you can achieve it with hundreds of examples. And, lest you think this is the responsibility of the elected politicians to do everything the right way - you are sadly mistaken. Why doesn't Obama allow us to use Google Super-Vote right now to vote on Obamacare? Why are we not using it to vote on continued War and Financial Support in Afghanistan and Pakistan - Two places that HATE US? Why doesn't Congress allow us to vote on their salaries? Why don't they let us use Google Super-Vote in the next election of 2016? Why don't we use Google Super-Vote to prevent the next useless war and senseless war or to Abolish the IRS? Or how to create more JOBS in America? Imagine the possibilities. In this book, we do more t
