      abstract = {Intellectual Property in the New Technological Age  addresses the full range of legal protections for IP: trade  secret, patent law, copyright law, trademarks/trade dress,  state and federal intellectual property protections,  protections for computer software, and a general overview  of antitrust law. Top authors in the field integrate cases  and materials with challenging practice problems to help  students begin to think like practitioners, and their  website provides continual updates. The text is deeply  enriched by a law and economics perspective, giving  students analytical tools to examine the subject in depth.  The text is particularly strong on new media issues such as  computer software. An annual statutory and case supplement  includes an introduction to biotechnology as well a review  of all the latest legal developments in IP.  The Sixth  Edition fully explores the America Invents Act (AIA), the  most significant reform to the patent laws in 60 years.  This includes a detailed explanation of the new "first  inventor to file" priority and novelty rules; in-depth  treatment of the new administrative procedures created by  the AIA, including Post-Grant Review and Inter Partes  Review; description of the new "prior user right" changes  in the best mode defense; and other features of the AIA.},
