Description and Table of Contents
Description
This text provides a comprehensive introduction to the complex and technical area of commercial law that covers the world of copyright, patents and trade mark law. The authors combine their backgrounds in academic teaching and private legal practice, to produce an intellectual and practical introduction to the subject. The book provides both a viewpoint for those in business and private practice who require an overview of this area, and a text which will encourage students to explore the subject further. This edition has been completely updated and now includes new material on the Databases Regulations, Competition Act 1998, the Agreement on Trade Related Intellectual Property, and the issues raised by the growing use of the Internet.
