Description

Explore the complex relationship between international patent law and the evolution of the life science industries. This historical analysis traces the development of the global patent regime back to the late 19th century, showing how legal frameworks changed alongside scientific progress. As scientists gained the ability to manipulate and commercially use the molecular properties of plants, animals, and microorganisms, patent laws evolved to meet these new technical capacities. This book follows the trajectory of the industry from its origins in European synthetic dyestuff firms to the rise of modern global conglomerates such as Novartis, Aventis, and Pharmacia. Readers will gain a clear understanding of how chemical and pharmaceutical sectors have shaped and been shaped by legal structures over the last century. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of law, globalization, and the biological sciences.
