Get Quick, Expert Answers to Your Copyright Law Questions in This Practical, Concise Reference Source.
Finally, a functional, "to-the-point" alternative to the expansive texts on copyright law, covering the most current cases and pivotal decisions.
When looking for the latest developments in copyright law, practitioners often turn to scholarly, multi-volume tomes that provide exhaustive coverage of every conceivable topic, but are not the best source for a practical discussion of the latest copyright decisions and their impact. What is needed is a reference that, rather than going into great theoretical and historical depth about the development of the law, clearly and concisely describes what the law actually is today. Instead of offering personal musings on statutory ambiguities and stray judicial remarks that have not yet led to court decisions, this treatise imparts clear answers to the questions the courts have actually addressed. Attorneys searching for this type of practical resource on copyright law now need look no further than BNA Books' Copyright Law Deskbook, by Robert Clarida.
As a worthy successor to BNA's The Copyright Law by Alan Latman, Copyright Law Deskbook expertly addresses the law and practice of copyright. It provides a thorough treatment of the relevant law, with a particular emphasis on and analyses of recent case law developments, yet manages to stay far more pragmatic than existing treatises on the subject. This single-volume text aims to be useful rather than monumental, focusing on particular disputes and rendering details specific to cases so that practitioners can determine which are more likely to be germane to the questions they need answered the most.
Copyright Law Deskbook also includes a searchable CD-ROM holding a 15 year archive of annual reviews of significant copyright decisions compiled by lawyers at Cowan, Liebowitz & Latman, P.C.
This treatise aims for practitioners, and for persons who lack the time or the inclination to wade through an encyclopedic treatise to find a direct answer to a simple question. For those who need advice about what the law is regarding copyright, Copyright Law Deskbook is the quick, accessible, and up-to-date source they will want on their bookshelf.
Another publisher created this product. Why should I buy it from the ABA?
We want the ABA Web store to carry any title that is useful to practicing lawyers and judges. So in addition to the hundreds of products published by the ABA itself, the Web store now offers hundreds of titles from other publishers, including BNA, Oxford University Press, Harvard Business School Press, Wiley, Merriam-Webster, and many others.
The ABA has entered into a distribution arrangement with these other publishers, and receives a small discount on the list price of each book it resells. When you buy these products from the ABA rather than direct from the publisher or from another online retailer, you directly support the many programs and initiatives of the ABA.
