In this book, internationally renowned professors and practitioners share their experience and tips on intellectual property education. Principles, methods, a sample curriculum, bibliographies and useful advice are contained. The major types of intellectual property are covered, as well as emerging issues, making this a valuable source of information on international intellectual property issues.

Intellectual property (IP) comprises not only the valuable economic assets of private firms, but also the social and cultural assets of society. The potential impact of intellectual property assets is so great that it is likely to have a considerable effect on national and international economic development in the future. Despite this, the area of IP education is relatively new to many academic institutions, and principles and methods in teaching IP are still evolving. Against this backdrop, in this book a number of internationally renowned professors and practitioners share their teaching techniques in their particular fields of expertise, including what they consider should be taught in terms of coursework. The result is a valuable handbook for teachers and those wishing to get up to speed on international IP issues.

LARRY ALLmAN is a Senior Counsellor of the World Intellectual Property Organisation. MPAZI A. SINJELA is Dean of the World Intellectual Property Organisation.
