In Laws of Creation, Ronald Cass and Keith Hylton take on these critics with a vigorous defense of intellectual property law. The authors look closely at the IP doctrines that have been developed over many years in patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret law. In each area, legislatures and courts have weighed the benefits that come from preserving incentives to innovate against the costs of granting innovators a degree of control over specific markets. Over time, the authors show, a set of rules has emerged that supports wealth-creating innovation while generally avoiding overly expansive, growth-retarding licensing regimes. These rules are now under pressure from detractors who claim that changing technology undermines the case for intellectual property rights. But Cass and Hylton explain how technological advances only strengthen that case. In their view, the easier it becomes to copy innovations, the harder to detect copies and to stop copying, the greater the disincentive to invest time and money in inventions and creative works. The authors argue convincingly that intellectual property laws help create a society that is wealthier and inspires more innovation than those of alternative legal systems. Ignoring the social value of intellectual property rights and making what others create and nurture "free" would be a costly mistake indeed."--Publisher's website 000687460 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000687460 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000687460 650_0 $$aCopyright. 000687460 7001_ $$aHylton, Keith N. 000687460 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aCass, Ronald A.$$tLaws of creation.$$dCambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press, 2013$$z9780674066458$$w(DLC) 2012011488$$w(OCoLC)780415817 000687460 85280 $$bebk$$hHarvard University Press 000687460 85640 $$3Harvard University Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.4159/harvard.9780674067646$$zOnline Access 000687460 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:687460$$pGLOBAL_SET 000687460 980__ $$aEBOOK 000687460 980__ $$aBIB 000687460 982__ $$aEbook 000687460 983__ $$aOnline
