Book excerpt: Patent Law in Australia Third Edition continues to be an indispensable guide to obtaining, maintaining, enforcing and challenging the validity of patents in Australia. Balancing both the practical nature of IP Australia processes and in-depth analysis of statute and case law, Patent Law in Australia Third Edition navigates every aspect of the patenting process, with detailed commentary on the law pertaining to each stage. Since the last edition published in 2013, there has been steady flow of case law developments enriching the jurisprudence on patents in Australia. There have been over 70 Federal Court decisions, a similar number of IP Australia patent decisions and High Court consideration of emerging issues. The Third Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect these. Among the most significant developments are: The High Court's controversial decision which ruled that naturally occurring nucleic acids are inherently unpatentable - D'Arcy v Myriad Genetics Inc (2015) The Federal Court decision to resolve a lingering question regarding the correct approach to be taken when determining whether a claimed invention was obvious - AstraZeneca v Apotex (2014) Numerous Federal Court decision relating to important areas including patentability of "business methods"; describing the "best method" of carrying out the invention; fair basis and claim breadth; requirement that a specification describe the invention fully; important developments relating to novelty; the forms of infringement; and many more significant matters. The Third Edition is substantially revised to reflect these developments, ensuring Patent Law in Australia continues to provide the most respected and effective guide for patent attorneys, intellectual property lawyers and barristers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intellectual property law in Australia has changed dramatically in the last decade and continues to change. Developments in technology, the rise of the internet, the globalisation of trade and the increasing importance of 'superbrands' – trade marks with global appeal – have all affected the laws surrounding intellectual property. Furthermore, globalisation has resulted in greater pressure on intellectual property owners to expand their rights as they endeavour to capture the potential benefits of ownership in an increasingly affluent and integrated world economy. Australian Intellectual Property Law, 2nd edition has been fully revised to take into account these significant case and legislative developments in trademarks, copyright and patents law. This book offers students and legal professionals a detailed discussion of the black-letter aspects of the law, with a primary emphasis on legal principles and complexities.

Download or read book Patent Policy and Innovation written by Hazel V. J. Moir and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔJust how inventive are inventions? More to the point, just how inventive are the inventions covered by patents? Not very, according to Hazel Moir, and there is no reason to doubt her conclusions. She has spent years in painstakingly analysis of dozens of business method patents in Australia and elsewhere. She finds. . . [t]hey are no more than strategic devices intended to annoy and disrupt commercial competition and confuse the market. . . Hazel Moir is a patent expert beholden to no patent theory and no patent interests. In consequence, her research is fresh and inspired. Her conclusion Ð that patents describe and protect obvious combinations of old ideas and trivial variations Ð may not be confined to business methods. It is a conclusion that demands the consideration of policymakers.Õ Ð Stuart Macdonald, Aalto University, Helsinki, Finland ÔThis book presents a compelling attack on the patent system. Thoughtfully analyzing the existing empirical literature and providing her own painstaking study of business method patents, Hazel Moir explains how it is that. . . patents have spread geographically and technologically, with increasingly broad rights becoming ever-easier to obtain. Bravely and persuasively, she recommends policymakers tackle one of the most vexing issues in patent law: the quantum of new knowledge that ought to be required to make an invention worthy of protection.Õ Ð Rochelle Dreyfuss, New York University School of Law, US ÔHazel MoirÕs book deserves to become a classic. Between its covers one will find writing of great clarity and data that reveal the real world costs of the patent system. After reading MoirÕs analysis, one wonders what the actual social benefits of the patent system might be. This is evidence-based analysis at its best.Õ Ð Peter Drahos, Australian National University and Queen Mary, University of London, UK ÔThis book presents a compelling attack on the patent system. Thoughtfully analyzing the existing empirical literature and providing her own painstaking study of business method patents, Hazel Moir explains how it is that, despite the intuitions of economists, social scientists, lawyers, judges, and even some inventors, patents have spread geographically and technologically, with increasingly broad rights becoming ever-easier to obtain. Bravely and persuasively, she recommends policymakers tackle one of the most vexing issues in patent law: the quantum of new knowledge that ought to be required to make an invention worthy of protection.Õ Ð Rochelle Dreyfuss, New York University School of Law, US This empirical study uses a scientifically selected sample of patents to assess patent quality. The careful evaluation of the assumptions in alternative economic theories about the generation and diffusion of new knowledge demonstrates that the height of the inventive step is critical to effective and efficient patent policy. The book provides a practical introduction to the policy rules affecting the grant of patents, particularly the rules making the inventive step so low. It also offers insights into interactions between examiners and applicants during the patent application process. Finally, the book compares how the rules about inventiveness operate in the USPTO, the EPO and the Australian Patent Office, gives new insights into business method patenting and offers suggestions for raising the height of the inventive step. Patent Policy and Innovation will appeal to academics researching in the patent field, economists, innovation and industry policy advisors, patent policy makers, NGO policy advisors and patent practitioners.

Download or read book Dean s Law of Trade Secrets and Privacy written by Gordon L. Hughes and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-31 with total page 1782 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law of Trade Secrets and Privacy Third Edition provides essential guidance through the law regarding personal, institutional and corporate privacy. This long-awaited new edition assists readers to better protect commercially sensitive, and private and personal information, by understanding the underlying principles of two related and rapidly changing areas of law. Protection of trade secrets is an integral part of business development. Similarly, protection of personal information is becoming increasingly complex under expanding privacy regulation. This book addresses the obligations in both areas, including the overlap. Constantly-evolving technology creates risk for businesses and individuals, yet legal regulatory frameworks may be slow to respond, and lag behind developments. A practitioner or company with a clear grasp of relevant legal principles and practice is better equipped to develop strategies for safeguarding against breaches of confidence. Since the Second Edition published in 2002, the challenges to personal, institutional and corporate privacy have become much more complex. Compliance with confidentiality laws is now complicated by jurisdictional issues arising from the use of modern communication technology, including social media. In addition, fiduciary relationships add another level of complication. In response, employment contracts and business restraints are becoming more prevalent. Privacy legislation has continued to evolve and it is necessary for practitioners to be familiar with Commonwealth, State and Territory privacy and health records regulation. The Privacy Act itself has recently undergone major amendments, and more are anticipated. At the same time, statutory protection is further complicated by the possible emergence of a common law right to privacy. Practitioners must move quickly in response to these developments and to anticipate how the courts will interpret them. Law of Trade Secrets and Privacy Third Edition is extracted from the subscription service Trade Secrets and Privacy, maintained by privacy and data protection specialist lawyer, Gordon Hughes . It is an essential and affordable resource for every company, institution and individual with privacy concerns.
