Patent License Agreements Line by Line: A Detailed Look at Patent License Agreements and How to Change Them to Meet Your Needs (LBL)

Written by two highly experienced attorneys, Patent License Agreements Line by Line is perhaps the most up-to-date work on this vital subject. Each day innovation plays a larger role in our lives, and in the success or failure of business. Frey and Hall have provided a remarkably concise and lucid explanation of the best practices in the negotiation and drafting of patent license agreements. Far from being a dry and obscure discussion of arcane issues by lawyers for lawyers, Patent License Agreements Line by Line was written by business lawyers, for business lawyers and business leaders. Patent License Agreements Line by Line will not solve the mystery of the doctrine of equivalence, but it does provide clear, concrete advice on transforming apatent into a reliable source of income.About the AuthorsKelly L.
