In a comprehensive analysis of property rights, including patent law, trademark law and copyright, the author categorizes the various types of licenses systematically and gives a detailed outline of the basic questions pertaining to the law of licensing agreements, such as for example the rights and obligations of the parties concerned, the law pertaining to interference with the performance of an obligation, to the transfer of rights and sublicenses as well as the protection of license and licensee. The book provides an important contribution for a uniform system for the law of licenses and licensing agreements in the law of intellectual property. |
