Practical and comprehensive, The Law of Intellectual Property has an innovative pedagogical design that makes teaching and learning Intellectual Property easier, but no less rewarding. Introductions to principal cases highlight salient issues, review the evolution and development of law, and include key statutory provisions at the end of substantive section—making a statutory supplement unnecessary. Notes clarify technological points and expand on the theory, context, and significance of each case.

The updated Third Edition welcomes new co-author Mark McKenna , who is a highly regarded trademark scholar.

This user-friendly approach to teaching Intellectual Property features:

  • current and comprehensive coverage
  • a distinguished author team with extensive experience in patents, trademarks, trade secrets, and copyrights
  • dynamic and innovative pedagogy that enriches study and doesn’t hide the ball
  • problems drawn from real-world cases
  • a detailed Teacher’s Manual with suggested syllabi, teaching notes, and more
