Description Editors Contact
Written by national experts in their field, Intellectual Property provides an overview of all the pertinent information on intellectual property needed to gain a clear comprehension of the legislation and policy on the subject in different countries.
This is the only publication in its field which analyses and describes theory and practice in a large number of countries. Information is also provided on all major and important international conventions and on international bodies like the EU and WIPO/OMPI.
It follows the same comprehensive formula as the other volumes and subsets in the International Encyclopaedia of Laws and as such allows easy comparison between various countries. The monographs are regularly updated and provide effective insights into national and international systems. Legal practitioners, academics, students, government officials and business people will find here all the information and insight they need to confidently resolve issues related to law and policy in any branch of intellectual property.
