Reviews

"This book feels like an important milestone in the study of IP, art and science. It is both a study and example of the richness of intellectual work and works that smartly situate the role of law in shaping both." -Jessica Silbey, Professor of Law, Suffolk University Law School, Intellectual Property Journal
"This book is an interdisciplinary effort by three Canadian scholars... The combination of [their] backgrounds means that the book is accessible to a wide reach of readers, all the more so for its use of contemporary, unique and accessible case studies." -Emma Linklater, European Journal of Legal Studies
"The book is a genuine attempt to engage with the legal, social, and anthropological logic of intellectual property law." -Luke McDonagh, The IP Law Book Review
