N2  - The only work in the English language to provide detailed article-by-article analysis which is invaluable for copyright lawyers dealing with difficult points of interpretation The only commentary to cover all of the Copyright Directives in one accessible volume Thorough and wide-ranging coverage of relevant subject matter to both practitioners and academics across Europe, but also globally, given the influence of the EU in intellectual property circles throughout the world Written and edited by highly respected authorities on copyright law, with a contributor team of leading practitioners and academics In addition to the bibliographies and materials opening each chapter, a general lists of materials/documents and ECJ case law is included at the beginning of the entire work. New and fully up-to-date English language commentary on European Copyright Law based on a German Kommentar reviewed as a "Jahrhundertwerk" (work of the century) This book is an updated English language version of a highly regarded commentary published in German by Springer in 2001, covering all of the EU Directives on copyright law and related rights, with article-by-article analysis of the provisions, as well as the relevant background of general EC law. The analysis of each article examines its antecedents in national laws, the negotiating history, the meaning and purpose of the wording, interpretive rulings by the European Court of Justice, and key issues relating to implentation of the regulations and rulings by the Member States, concentrating in particular on the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy and Hungary. The revised English edition takes into account the many significant developments which have taken place since the German edition was published, including the Software Directive, the Database Directive, the revised text of the Product Piracy Regulation, the Enforcement Directive and the review of the EC legal framework.
