The chemicals, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology industries worldwide rely upon being able to patent inventions in order to protect investment in research and development, and to reap commercial rewards. This book guides the reader through the legal and procedural complexities of the British, European, Japanese and US patent systems, and explains in detail the role of patent practitioners (both in-house and in private practice) in maximizing the commercial potential of their client's or company's innovative products. This is the third edition of the author's highly acclaimed Patents for Chemists. It provides vital updating and much expanded coverage, while retaining the focus upon the relevant technology and industry practices that sets it apart from more general books on patent law and procedure. Patents for Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals and Biotechnology provides a complete description of the techniques and industry know-how that underlie successful patent practice and portfolio management and will be invaluable to all patent agents and practitioners working in the area of patent law. With its lucid and accessible presentation and practical approach, this book will also be welcomed by scientists, researchers and managers without a legal background. FROM THE REVIEWS OF PREVIOUS EDITIONS 'Dr Grubb thoroughly exposes the patent system in a way with which few of his professional peers will quarrel, and his book should be in every chemical/biological patent department library' European Intellectual Property Review 'an excellent book for anyone interested in patents' International Review of Industrial Property and Copyright Law 'a sensible, practical appraisal of the case law and decisions - easy to read and very informative' CIPA Journal '[A] sterling feature of this work is its truly global perspective' Journal of the Patent and Trademark Office Society (US)
