Opis

Employing law and philosophy of economics, this book explores how copyright shapes ownership of ideas in the social media age.

Recenzje

'Travis has provided an engaging, fast-paced argument, setting out examples of how copyright has favoured one group over another … What makes this book interesting and worth reading is this creation of small stories and grand narratives around the nature and scope of copyright.' Phillip Johnson, European Intellectual Property Review
