‘The editors, Ruth Towse and Rudi Holzhauer, do an excellent job of selecting a mix of classic and current scholarship on the economics of intellectual property and copyright. They also add a lengthy introduction that provides an excellent overview of the area.’
– Benjamin J. Bates, The International Journal on Media Management
‘Intellectual Property rights are primarily a tool of economic policy and their objectives, scope and procedures have rightly attracted a wide range of economic analysis over the past quarter-century. This useful collection draws together many of the best-noted contributions to the debates. It will be a valuable source of reference for economists, lawyers, IP professionals and all involved in the vibrant policy-making of this field, whether their concerns are primarily with the developing or the developed world.’
– W.R. Cornish, University of Cambridge, UK
This authoritative four-volume collection presents the most important published articles and papers on the economics of intellectual property – a subject that is of increasing interest to both economists and lawyers. Publication is timely in view of the growing interest in the relationship of innovation and knowledge to economic growth as well as the challenges to copyright being posed by the new electronic media. International in scope, this four-volume set will be an essential source of reference to both economists and lawyers concerned with the rapidly developing field of intellectual property.
