Details

"The author has presented the materials in a clear and straightforward manner. I am certain that it can be understood not only by the legal practitioners but also by laypersons who want to know and understand the key concept in patent law. Judges too would benefit from reading this book when they apply patent laws to adjudicate their case."
The Honorable Justice Dato' Abdul Malik Ishak, Judge, High Court of Malaya

Section 11 of the Patents Act 1983 states that an invention is patentable if it is new, if it involves an intentive step and is industrially applicable. Such an invention is defined under section 12 of the same Act to mean the idea of an inventor which permits in practice the solution to a specific problem in the field of technology.

Critics of software and business method patents need to know what patents are, how they work, and the cases that define the scope of what can be patented. The critics must also be informed of the procedures for the grant of patents and its duration.

Extensive materials have been incorporated into the text and various aspects of the law on patent have been examined and neatly put together. Further, extensive reference has been made to other works from America, Japan, United Kingdom, Germany, Australia and other common law jurisdictions.
