Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential desk reference for patent attorneys, engineers, entrepreneurs, innovators, development professionals, and students has been updated with the latest court cases and legislation. In a world in which businesses thrive on innovation, it is more important than ever to understand the sometimes arcane rules through which human ingenuity becomes intellectual property. Although many reference works on patent law exist, they are written for specialists. Through clear writing, specific examples, and focus on the fundamentals, Patent Law Essentials: A Concise Guide makes the basic rules of patent law accessible to businesspeople, engineers, students, and others who need to understand the rules of a notoriously complicated game. Patent Law Essentials begins with an overview of patent law and other aspects of intellectual property and then guides the reader through an example of an actual patent—one literally claiming "a better mousetrap." The chapters that follow discuss the types of inventions that can be patented (recently a subject of much dispute), the process of applying for a patent, the requirements of a valid patent, and the procedures for determining if a patent has been infringed upon. The appendix includes several examples of actual U.S. patents, including the mousetrap patent discussed in detail in the early chapters.

This book was released on 2018-08-10 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely revised and updated, this sixth edition of a well-received desk reference offers in one volume a comprehensive review of United States (US) copyright, patent, and trademark laws. Like its previous editions, the book’s thorough and sophisticated treatment of this complex material escapes the cumbersome overelaboration of a multivolume treatise on the one hand and a superficial “nutshell” on the other. Maintaining the systematic structure that makes it easy for users to zero in on any particular matter, the new edition incorporates the changes that have entered into force since the fifth edition and expertly examines their effects. The three major categories of copyright, patent, and trademark are covered in turn—along with a fourth section on chip protection—with detailed but concise examination and analysis of such issues and topics as the following and much more: • subject matter of protection; • conditions of protection; • registration procedures; • scope of exclusive rights; • transfer of interests; • fair use; • rights in unregistered marks; • protection of computer software, code, and databases; • remedies and defenses; and • procedural issues in infringement actions. The authors examine significant case law, updated for this edition, in the course of their analysis. With its detailed citations and readily accessible and complete subject coverage, this latest edition is sure to retain its usefulness as a quick reference or desk book for intellectual property practitioners, in-house counsel, patent agents, academics, and librarians, as well as for anyone interested in understanding US intellectual property law.

Book excerpt: The authors feel that students considering patent law for the first time should look forward to learning legal tenets as venerable as the Constitution itself yet as current as the latest development from the laboratory bench. This casebook is comparative and constantly refers to aspects of foreign patent systems. This is with the understanding that patent practitioners without an understanding of the international patent system place their clients at a significant disadvantage.

For inventors who want to file patents by themselves, this new edition provides guidelines and step-by-step instructions on preparing and filing a US provisional patent application, while avoiding the pitfalls that commonly occur in do-it-yourself patenting."--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous non-Chinese entities seek patents in China, and allegations of infringement are not uncommon. In this invaluable guide to Chinese patent law and the rules applicable to infringement challenges, the authors—all members of a leading Chinese law firm with wide experience in advising foreign clients—bring their experience in real-world patent litigation, reinforced with an abundance of relevant case law, in order to introduce the Chinese patent regime in a systematic and practical manner. In their thorough analysis of the scope of protection of patent rights and invalidation procedures, supported throughout by detailed examination of patent infringement lawsuits, the authors clarify such essential elements of Chinese patent law practice as the following: assertion of a claim; choosing the basis of the right to sue; publicity of claims; principle of internal interpretation priority; correction of ambiguity in a claim; interpretation of claims defined by preparation methods; defining the effect of a sequence of steps of a process claim; meaning of “persons of ordinary skill in the art”; concept of “means plus function”; application of the All Elements Rule; determination of functional features; and doctrine of equivalents. Each doctrine and the underlying principle is thoroughly examined with reference to relevant court decisions. With this eminently practical and authoritative guide, corporate counsel and patent lawyers will proceed confidently through the Chinese patent application system, assess risks and opportunities, understand how precedents might affect their case, protect their rights in China once they have a patent, and handle infringement proceedings with full awareness of applicable principles and procedures.
