Opis

Many countries have already agreed to accept minimum standards of intellectual property protection and enforcement. But how much control should innovators exercise over their creative works or inventions? This new collection of essays analyzes and develops this issue, which has assumed considerable importance in our new knowledge-based economy.

Recenzje

Clearly written ... carefully constructed arguments ... high quality writing pervades virtually the whole book ... There are many volumes that deal with the knowledge economy; few however present such a wide and challenging selection of ideas ... thought provoking insight into the future of intellectual property ... the book's overall strength lies in its ability to open new insights into this important legal area.
