Book Review: Overlapping Intellectual Property Rights (Second Edition)

The IPKat

The book consists of 21 chapters, each of which addresses a distinct pair of IP rights, where IP is given a broad swathe of meaning. Chapter 2, authored by David Musker, considers the overlaps between patents and designs. The case serves as the springboard for a discussion on whether owning both rights may put the rightsholder at risk.
