Description

Publishing Law is a comprehensive guide to the law as it affects the publishing industry. Written by a publishing and copyright solicitor with many years experience of the trade, this work will serve as a comprehensive handbook for all those who need a practical working understanding of where and how the law may apply. Hugh Jones addresses a range of key legal issues in the publishing process: confidential information, copyright, moral rights, commissioning and contracts, editing and production, defamation, libel and new legal risks such as negligent mis-statement, electronic publishing, obscenity, official secrets and defences such as fair trading, trademarks and passing off, consumer law, data protection, advertising and promotion, merchandising, distribution and export. Advice is given on current copyright legislation and the integration of directives and regulations from the European Union. Legal points are explained with reference to important statutes, cases and relevant trade practices. A full glossary of terms and list of useful addresses are provided.
