The IPKat Best Intellectual Property Book 2018 Intellectual Property and the Judiciary Edited by Christophe Geiger, Craig Allen Nard ‘There are many publications on substantive and procedural law in IP litigation. But it was impossible to find a book that addresses the role of the judiciary in IP like this one does. It provides unique insights into the matter from a variety of angles. It brings together editors and authors from the bench, the bar and academia coming from all over Europe, the US and Japan. This book is a must-have for everyone who has an interest in international IP litigation.’ – Klaus Grabinski, Justice, Federal Court of Justice (Bundesgerichtshof), Germany The IPKat Best Copyright Book 2018 Propertizing European Copyright Caterina Sganga ‘A lot has been written about the harmonisation of EU copyright law, but this study offers a fundamental analysis by going back to the concept of the propertization of copyright. The current EU framework turns out to be inconsistent and based on hybrid narratives. Through a comparative analysis of national copyright regimes a proper constitutional propertization is proposed, with a key role for the social function doctrine. This study is a vital contribution to the understanding of copyright law.’ – Paul Torremans, The University of Nottingham, UK The IPKat Best Patent Book 2018 Patent Pledges Edited by Jorge L. Contreras and Meredith Jacob 'A must-read for anyone involved in technology development and standardization. The authors analyze the complexity of patent pledges in a clear and concise manner. Moreover, even though the book is addressed to practitioners in the field of IP licensing, litigation, technology development, and standardization, the way in which the content is addressed makes the book useful as well for scholars in various fields.' – IPkat blog Free Articles from Queen Mary Journal of Intellectual Property On the scope of protection of renowned trade marks Gustavo Ghidini and Giovanni Cavani The exhaustion of patent rights v the implied licence approach: untangling the web of patent rights Jessica C Lai |
