Dictionary of Intellectual Property Law

Peter Groves, Solicitor, Consultant to CJ Jones Solicitors LLP, London and author of the IPso Jure blog (www.ipsojure.co.uk)

'This work is splendid. As an intellectual property litigator I ask, ''why did no-one do it before''? Was it for lack of the creative idea, or did no-one have the diligence and erudition of Peter Groves to perfect it? And now that it has been done, we will wonder how we managed without it.'--Jonathan Turner, Barrister'Do not be put off by the word ''dictionary''. This is a fascinating, witty and erudite little volume, packed with interesting and useful information on the whole gamut of intellectual property. It leaves one (this one anyway) hungering for more and wanting to delve more deeply into fields that have nothing to do with earning one's daily bread.'--Tony McStea, Senior Patent Attorney, Global Patents, Givaudan Schweiz AG'Dr Groves set himself the monumental task of assembling a work that would be both a dictionary of the most important terms in intellectual property law and a ready resource for IP students and practitioners worldwide. He has succeeded admirably: his book not only covers the field but also glitters with unexpected delights (the entry on goodwill is a must-read). This compendium is essential for the desktop (or laptop) of anyone whose work involves intellectual property.'--Robert C. Cumbow, Graham & Dunn PC
