Intellectual property law Books
Nova Science Publishers Inc Law & Economics of IPRs
Book SynopsisIntellectual property is at the centre of the "new economy". New economy products are characterised by declining average costs over a range of output, high rates of innovation, and network effects. The return deriving from IPRs is directly correlated to the duration as well as the scope of those rights. The center of IP rights has moved further and further upstream over the past century, to the point of now protecting living organisms, basic research tools, and procedural methods as well as mathematical algorithms and databases. Globalisation and the exploitation of ICT open up opportunities for promoting democracy and wealth in poorer countries. Efficiency-seeking FDI increases competitiveness and the trademark of the competition law is the protection of those principles and practices which facilitate the efficient functioning of markets. Capital flows, in particular FDI, are one of the crucial components of globalisation and international integration. FDIs capitulate more benefits than other types of financial flows in addition to increasing domestic capital stock. This book describes in detail the law and economics of IPRs.

Oxford University Press Intellectual Property
Book SynopsisIn The Oxford Introductions to U.S. Law: Intellectual Property, prominent intellectual property scholar Daniel Hunter provides a precise, engaging overview and careful analysis of current laws of intellectual property and their history. Hunter first focuses on the central areas of intellectual property law, including copyright, patent, trademark, and trade secrets. He then moves beyond the basics, exploring the politics, economics, psychology and rhetoric of possession and control that influence and interact with this area of law. Hunter explains how intellectual property has contributed greatly to the innovations that we, as a society, need in our modern lives. He also describes ways in which the expansion of intellectual property can reduce innovation by stopping others from implementing great ideas or producing new work. Hunter helps readers think about modern intellectual property in a way that allows them to see how innovation and progress are linked to intellectual property law, Trade Review... for those students and researchers who are looking for a highly stimulating, but nonetheless thorough, introduction to the topic, this book is recommended. * Luke McDonagh, Journal of Intellectual Property Law and Practice 7: 9 *Table of ContentsChapter 1: Introduction ; Chapter 2: Copyright ; Chapter 3: Patent ; Chapter 4: Trademark ; Chapter 5: Trade Secrets ; Chapter 6: Related Rights

Oxford University Press Intellectual Property
Book SynopsisTo offer a core concept of intellectual property, to consider various justifications for the recognition of intellectual property rights and to expound their operation in particular areas of activity is the purpose of this book.It is essential to examine both the concept of intellectual property and the reasons why a legal system might incorporate such a concept. We are increasingly told that the wealth of nations, consists in ''intangible assets''. These are the intangible products of human creativity, ingenuity and effort. It is frequently argued that these assets represent the future of the developed economies and that their adequate protection by the intellectual property regimes is essential to national, regional, and even global, prosperity. We are also told that the creators of such assets have a strong moral claim to them, and that developed legal systems should recognise this claim. This text examines the ethical issues and debates surrounding intellectual property law and focTable of Contents1. The Concept of Intellectual Property ; 2.

Oxford University Press, USA Intellectual Property Rights
Book SynopsisIn recent years, Intellectual Property Rights - both in the form of patents and copyrights - have expanded in their coverage, the breadth and depth of protection, and the tightness of their enforcement. Moreover, for the first time in history, the IPR regime has become increasingly uniform at international level by means of the TRIPS agreement, irrespectively of the degrees of development of the various countries.This volume, first, addresses from different angles the effects of IPR on the processes of innovation and innovation diffusion in general, and with respect to developing countries in particular. Contrary to a widespread view, there is very little evidence that the rates of innovation increase with the tightness of IPR even in developed countries. Conversely, in many circumstances, tight IPR represents an obstacle to imitation and innovation diffusion in developing countries.What can policies do then? This is the second major theme of the book which offers several detailed discTable of Contents1. Introduction ; PART I: IPR, INNOVATION AND DEVELOPMENT: ECONOMIC HISTORY AND THEORY ; 2.

Oxford University Press, USA Europeanisation of Intellectual Property Law Towards a European Legal Methodology
Book SynopsisWith a particular focus on intellectual property, this work explores some of the key methodological and institutional issues affecting the development of European private law. Leading experts consider seven key topics, furthering understanding of the impact of Europeanization on the substance and quality of law, the process of law-making in a Europeanised system, and the requirements for a truly European legal order. The work begins by looking at the making of European Intellectual Property law, covering models of European harmonization, the pursuit of harmonization to date, and the creation of the European intellectual property courts. It goes on to examine the impact of European IP law, covering the impact of constitutional rights and values on intellectual property, the impact of general EU law on intellectual property, the relationship between European and national courts, and European legal methodology. Using intellectual property as a case study in private law Europeanization, the work generate insights of relevance and application within the fields of intellectual property and private law generally to help develop a European legal methodology.Trade ReviewThis edited collection is an excellent guide and read for those searching for the lore behind European IP. The ambition to explore IP as a case study in private law Europeanisation is unique and a real contribution to scholarship in Europe and elsewhere It further emphasizes the uniqueness of IP as an independent field for judicial enquiry and not merely as a species of property. This edited collection succeeds in offering a natural starting point for thinking about a common European legal method, and the form which such a method might and ought to take (p.23) It is not only a fascinating journey through the thoughts and wisdom of the leading experts that have contributed to the volume, but a real pioneering learning experience. * Lior Zemer, Radzyner School of Law, Interdisciplinary centre, Herzliya *The book offers an insightful approach to an area of EU law that remains relatively unexplored, although increasingly significant. The result is a thought-provoking book. Thanks to comprehensive theoretical analysis, intriguing perspective, and critical account of historical developments, and the Europeanization of Intellectual Property Law is a book for everyone interested in the future of EU intellectual property law and private law in general. * Stavroula Karapapa, Yearbook of European Law *Table of ContentsPART I: THE EUROPEANIZATION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW ; 1.

Cambridge University Press Trade Secrets and Employee Mobility Volume 44
Book SynopsisIn the increasingly knowledge- and innovation-based economy in which the mobility of the workforce is vital, employees and ex-employees are considered to be one of the biggest threats to the existence of trade secrets. The interests of the former parties to the employment relationship are contradictory: employers want to safeguard their competitive position by limiting use of information, and employees want to use that information to pursue their professional career. Magdalena Kolasa analyses existing guidelines that determine the extent to which former employees may use information learned during service. She proposes criteria for a balanced enforcement of trade secrets, discussing the statutory and implicit confidentiality duties, contractual protection, and remedies. Drawing from the laws of Germany, UK, and USA, and considering the EU Trade Secrets Directive, this book advocates an approach which recognises the value and functions of trade secrecy both within companies and in the cTrade Review'The book fulfils the author's stated aim and does, albeit within the limitations of a comparative approach, offer a nuanced and balanced view of a complex field of law.' John Hull, International Company and Commercial Law ReviewTable of ContentsIntroduction; 1. Conflict of interests: confidentiality, mobility of employees and innovation policy; 2. Concept of trade secrets; 3. Trade secret, employee's skill and knowledge or public domain information: where to draw the line?; 4.

Oak Tree Press Intellectual Property: From Creation to Commercialisation
Book SynopsisFor many knowledge-intensive or technology-based start-up companies, the professional management of intellectual property (IP) is critically important. In fact, IP may be the main asset by which the value of a young company is determined and on which decisions to invest in the company are based - and so IP needs to be considered very early in the planning process. Intellectual Property: From Creation to Commercialisation provides a detailed grounding for innovators and researchers. The book starts with the source of innovation - that is, at the point where resourcefulness and creativity combine to develop new opportunities through problem-solving - and examines the critical steps that need to be carefully managed in the process surrounding the creation of IP and managing its development from concept through to exploitation. This involves the steps of identifying, capturing and assessing the value of IP. Useful recommendations for managing the transfer of IP from a research environment to the knowledge economy are provided and case studies illustrate pitfalls to watch out for. Readers can expect to gain a broad understanding of IP and the innovation process. Specifically, they will learn: > The benefits of implementing procedures to ensure that IP can be protected, managed and exploited effectively. > How to assess the most appropriate routes to market, such as licensing or sale of their IP, or establishing a spin-out company to deliver a service or product offering. > How to present a viable business case to potential funders and investors.

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Innovation and Nanotechnology: Converging Technologies and the End of Intellectual Property
Book SynopsisThis book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. This book defines 'nanowares' as the ideas and products arising out of nanotechnology. Koepsell argues that these rapidly developing new technologies demand a new approach to scientific discovery and innovation in our society. He takes established ideas from social philosophy and applies them to the nanoparticle world. In doing so he breaks down the subject into its elemental form and from there we are better able to understand how these elements fit into the construction of a more complex system of products, rules and regulations about these products. Where existing research in the field has tended to focus on potential social harm, Koepsell takes a different approach by looking at ways in which developments in distributed design and fabrication can be harnessed to enable wealth creation by those with good ideas but no access to capital. He argues that the key challenge facing us is the error implicit in current intellectual property regimes and presents new modes of relating inventors to artifacts in this new context. In conclusion he offers contractual models which he believes encourage innovation in nano-media by embracing open source and alternative means of protection for innovators.Table of ContentsLet's Get Small; Nanotechnology and the Future; Nano-Present; Laws, Rules and Regulations; Things in Themselves: Objects, Ideas and Intentions; Authorship and Artifacts; Economics, Surpluses and Justice; Nanotech Nightmares; The Final Convergence
