About this ebook
In our age of unlimited, around-the-clock communication, copyright literacy has become a must for almost all of us, and everyone—informed or not—seems to have strong opinions about the rights of copyright owners and the rights of copyright users. This clearly written and objective book will reward readers with a more concrete understanding of our whole copyright system. Intellectual property lawyer Lee Wilson, author of six books on intellectual property law, explains how creators can preserve their copyrights, how users of copyrights can do what they want without obstructing the law, and how both can profit from copyrights overall. This indispensable, friendly manual includes guidelines for negotiating copyrights as well as form agreements, and is a must-have for anyone who wants to protect and profit from their own copyrights and use the copyrights of others—legally.
