Answer 1

Alexander Graham Bell

Answer 2

A lot of people were working on a telephone in the mid-1870s; we remember Scots-Canadian Alexander Graham Bell because he was the first to get to the U.S. Patent Office with his designs and application. He beat his nearest competitor there by only a couple of hours.

If Bell had, say, been run over in the street by a horse before registering his design, we'd still have had the telephone, and at the same point in history.

That's the real point of this discussion: no one really invents anything; some (admittedly tenacious) people just come along and perceive society's readiness for something new, and that the slow, steady progress of science has already provided all the underlying components for the "new invention," if only he/she has the ability to figure out how to put them together.

In short, things are "invented" because they can't NOT be. The weight and momentum of what we call progress -- scientific and social -- makes them inevitable.

Answer 3

Alexander Graham Bell

Answer 4

Obviously, like in all the inventions there are lots of scientists claiming to be the inventors. It seems that the first person who presented something alike was Antonio Meucci (Italian), but the person who managed to make it massively used and commercialized was of course Graham Bell. By the way, the real inventors are not the ones that create something first, but the ones who find a real application of their inventions to be massively used (That's how normal people like us get to know them!)
