While intellectual property rights are mostly studied in isolation, in practice the legal categories created to protect these rights provide only partial legal coverage of the broader context in which such rights are created, used, and enforced. Consequently, often multiple IP rights overlap with respect to the same underlying subject matter. This book enables readers to consider how these overlapping rights work together, facilitating a deeper understanding of how and when they may be encountered in practice. Each chapter addresses a discrete pair of IP rights and uses a hypothetical scenario to analyse particular conceptual and practical issues, giving practitioners a comprehensive understanding of the overlap. While the focus of these IP rights is on UK, US and European law, the book also contains comparison tables of overlapping IP rights in other countries around the world. These tables complement the chapters, offering a detailed overview as to how these overlaps apply in different legal jurisdictions, as well as how they differ.
The Second Edition ofOverlapping Intellectual Property Rights is a comprehensive, technically flawless and scientifically perfect volume that honours the memory of Prof Basheer by mak-ing an essential contribution to this area of IP law which will probably remained unrivalled for a long time. A monumental scholarly work that I recommend to any academic, including PhD students, and prac-titioner who wants to gain a better understanding ofthis topic. * Journal of Intellectual Property Law & Practice *
This sets the milestone for massive future research. * Camilla Signoretta, IIC - International Review of Intellectual Property and Competition Law *
This reviewer can only congratulate the publishers on an outstanding second edition and hope that this equally instructive and diverting book achieves as wide a distribution as the first one. Anyone who enjoyed reading the first work will enjoy this one just as much--and everyone else is strongly recommended to finally pick it up. * Prof. Dr Gordian N. Hasselblatt, EIPR *
The book is an interesting and engaging read, useful for practitioners and academicians alike, covering the contours of overlapping in IP analytically, comparatively, and exhaustively. * Md Sabeeh Ahmad, SpicyIP *
