Integrated Intellectual Property (Second Edition) is a survey casebook enabling teachers and students to explore federal patent, copyright, and trademark law as well as related state laws in either a traditional or integrated fashion. It includes all statutory material related to the topics presented. The Second Edition is dramatically reorganized to facilitate either traditional study of each area separately or comparative study of the fundamental doctrinal underpinnings of all three areas. The Second Edition also contains a new section on the right of publicity, exploration of the federal trade secrets statute and comparison to state trade secret laws, and dozens of new cases throughout the book. The book contains classic and contemporary principle and reference cases as well as guides to organizing, integrating, and understanding the law and authors’ notes explaining and elaborating on legal rules.
