Intellectual Property offers unrivalled coverage of all major intellectual property rights and is designed to equip you with a strong understanding of the wealth of domestic, European and international laws at play in this area.

· Significant restructuring to reduce the length of each chapter without compromising on coverage of each topic.

· A revised chapter structure which maps closely to the structure of a typical intellectual property module.

· Discussion on the creation of a European patent with unitary effect and a Unified Patents Court.

· Coverage of the new codifying trade mark regulation and the trade mark directive requiring implementation in 2019.

· An outline of the Intellectual Property (Unjustified Threats) Act 2017.

· Consideration of the potential wide-ranging effects of Brexit in relation to intellectual property rights and protections.
