Majosta Intellectual Property Management Handbook

This is a book on intellectual property rights, particularly patents. It is not an introductory text on intellectual property management for a novice in the field of intellectual property rights, but is a handbook for those who have some familiarity with intellectual property rights. The book assumes that the reader knows the basic terms and concepts commonly used in the field of intellectual property rights. This book is a helpful guide for an intellectual property practitioner, particularly an in-house one. Intellectual property rights discussed include patent, copyright, industrial design, trade mark and protection of undisclosed information. It also presents some commonly used intellectual property valuation methods, licensing royalty calculation and infringement damages calculation. In addition, the book also presents some commonly encountered matters related to intellectual property licensing. Finally, some intellectual property management (IPM) concepts are presented. The discussions are mainly focussed on the intellectual property laws of Singapore, the UK, China and the USA.
