Ebook: Chemistry and Patent Law: U.S. Supreme Court Decisions 2000−2020

Twenty years of change regarding US patent law...

As intellectual property plays an increasingly vital role in the modern economy, cases are brought to the Supreme Court on a more regular basis. In this book, experienced practicing patent lawyers offer accessible but thorough analyses of the most significant Supreme Court decisions in many key
areas of patent law since 2000. The volume begins with an overview of the Court's make-up, function, and role in the U.S. legal system. Each chapter covers another case, and the chapters describe the context of the decisions as well as outline or predict their implications for chemists. This will be
of interest to researchers considering careers in patent law, inventors, in-house legal groups, bench scientists looking for a clear summary of a relevant issue, and expert witnesses in a patent litigation.
