This book takes a fresh look at the most dynamic area of American law today, comprising the fields of copyright, patent, trademark, trade secrecy, publicity rights, and misappropriation. It demonstrates the fundamental economic rationality of intellectual property law, but is sympathetic to critics who believe that IP rights have gone too far.
