Intellectual Property – A Business User’s Guide, is written by Farah Namazie and published by LexisNexis in 2019. It covers the broad and complex field of Intellectual Property (IP) law, addressing a wide range of relevant topics in a single publication. The book explains how IP laws apply to common business concerns and issues. It is written in clear, accessible terms, while maintaining legal precision, so no prior legal knowledge or expertise in intellectual property law is needed to gain a practical understanding of the subject. Entrepreneurs, students of IP, legal counsels and practitioners seeking an insight into IP law and its applicability in an operational context will find this book beneficial.
