  Intellectual Property is now a subject widely taught, and widely debated, with hot new topics such as gene patenting or copyright on the Internet discussed in the popular press. In fact, Intellectual Property has now acquired a central position in the global economy, with information technology, biotechnology and branding all leading the way. This new edition has been fully updated to take account of various changes to the law, including the recent Designs Directive and the Information Society Directive from the European Union.
