Recenzje

In the first pages of the book, the authors (Klopschinski, Gibson, and Ruse-Khan) mention how litigating investment disputes based on intellectual property is complicated by the fact that arbitrators often have no intellectual property background. This book attempts to fill gaps and address questions that have been left open thus far by emerging case law dealing with intellectual property and investment. One of the advantages of the book is the analysis of non-intellectual property arbitration cases and linking these provisions to intellectual property cases that have not yet been applied.
