Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a reference guide to the major trends in Asian IP law. The book is a collection of 30 case reports by 26 eminent scholars and practitioners from Asia, Germany and the US. It covers leading patent cases from nine major Asian economies.
Each case report is structured in the following way: summary, legal context, facts, reasoning behind the decision, legal analysis, and commercial or industrial significance. The purpose of this structure is to give readers both an overview of the legal context under which the individual cases were adjudicated and how those cases are to be deciphered legally and commercially.
