A new book claims that Alexander Graham Bell didn't really invent the telephone by himself, He actually stole much of the idea from a rival, Elisha Gray.

The news are rather controversial and I'm not sure that the facts are correct or otherwise. I've always come to know that Bell is the creator. Maybe there's a possibility since what we saw on Windows operating system whereby Mr. Bill Gates, claimed that he is the inventor. Well, what actually happens is that he develop his version of OS based on ideas taken from others.

I agree to that this statement is real controversial. But you know one who brought this thing in to the picture is the one who created it. And he brought this thing in front of this world.And now he is the one who is creator of the thing so cant say anything. Hats off to Sir Graham Bell.

This is shocking Surprised . Does that mean he gets all the credit from other people's work all the while until today? If it's true, what can actually be done to correct it?
