Whether you're investigating patent, copyright or trademark law, get the most concise and comprehensive explanations of intellectual property in one volume!

Whether you're an Edison, Faulkner or Jobs, you need Patent, Copyright & Trademark.

Intellectual property law has rapidly produced its own language. But don't count on understanding it right off the bat -- the terms baffle lawyers and lay folk alike. Whether you're an inventor, designer, writer or programmer, you need to understand the language of intellectual property law to intelligently deal with such issues as:

  • who owns creative works or valuable information
  • how these owners can protect and enforce their ownership rights
  • how disputes between intellectual property owners can be resolved, and
  • how ownership rights can best be transferred to others.

    With this essential guide, you will:

  • get clear overviews of relevant laws
  • understand the different kinds of protection offered by patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets -- and which apply to your work
  • get a plain-English definition of every term you're likely to come across, and
  • find the information you need, quickly and easily -- all entries are organized by topic and extensively cross-referenced.

    This edition includes an expanded dictionary of borderline IP terms and reflects the many changes resulting from legislation and case law. It also includes a new Q&A section excerpted from the author's regularly updated "Dear Rich" blog.

    Review:

    “Patent, Copyright & Trademark: An Intellectual Desk Reference covers the recent “America Invents Act” and explains all the basics of the latest patent, copyright and trademark laws, appearing in its 12th updated edition to provide any reference library with an outstanding survey of legal rights and work.  From explanations of the scope and intent of copyright protection laws to the latest intellectual laws, this goes beyond definition and offers through insights on legal applications from protecting trade secrets to trademark laws and applications. Any general or legal lending library should consider this a ‘must have’ reference.” The Midwest Book Review

    "" A reliable, easily comprehended introduction to intellectual property law. "" Library Journal
