This volume outlines the development of modern patent, trademark and copyright laws – encompassing related links to personality rights as well as unfair competition and anti-trust laws – and providing biographies of those who contributed to intellectual property law's development.
The history of intellectual property has so far not concerned itself with the individuals who actively influenced the law over the past 200 years. This volume changes that by outlining the development of modern patent, trademark and copyright laws – encompassing related links to personality rights as well as unfair competition and anti-trust laws – and providing biographies of those who contributed to intellectual property law's development. Systematic analysis supplies personal profiles of the leading characters in this field of law, which has been dominated more by legal practice than other areas of business law.
