Product Description
The most complete commentary available on the state of patent law. In your office and in the courtroom—you can find analysis of every patent law decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in this single-volume treatise. The latest edition of Patents and the Federal Circuit contains the most comprehensive analysis of Federal Circuit patent cases through 2004. This monumental reference deals with both the high profile cases and the "uncelebrated decisions" that tend to slip under the radar, and fits them all into an analytical framework that reveals their true significance. Patents and the Federal Circuit addresses ever-changing issues and developments in substantive patent law, infringement litigation, and procedure. The author distills the opinions issued by the primary source of governing law on patents, giving you convenient, one-source access to controlling case law. The material is organized in a way that is intuitively familiar to patent lawyers, so they can access the information they need quickly and easily. The Seventh Edition of Patents and the Federal Circuit covers all Federal Circuit patent opinions reported by BNA through United States Patents Quarterly (Second), Volume 71, and any other important Federal Circuit decisions handed down through the end of the year 2004. |
