Copyright Unfair Competition, and Related Topics Bearing on the Protection of Works of Authorship - University Casebook Series

This casebook emphasizes the fundamentals of copyright law while also providing extensive coverage of major contemporary issues such as digital dissemination, fair use, and service provider liability. Coverage of moral rights, unfair competition, and publicity rights distinguishes it from the competition.

Traditional case and statutory analysis is supplemented by a rich collection of background materials that offer practical and policy perspectives on established doctrines and emerging issues. The book is manageable in size and organized to accommodate both two-credit and three-credit courses. The Eleventh Edition has been comprehensively updated and includes major new cases on issues including first sale, service provider liability, misappropriation, and idea protection.
