Covering all recent relevant legislative developments, notably in network communications in the digital age, this up-to-date and compact quick-reference guide should be considered a must-have purchase for any practitioner involved with any matter relating to copyright -- Elizabeth Robson Taylor, Richmond Green Chambers and Phillip Taylor MBE, Head of Chambers The headings, layout, diagrams and language make this very much a useful practitioner’s book. It is easy to use which is tremendously helpful in practice. It lives up to its name—a User’s Guide to Copyright. Although it may be practical and helpful, the book also has all the characteristics a reader needs to check thoroughly the relevant case law and statutes. There are full tables of cases and everything else to be expected in a thorough law book. -- Susan Singleton * European Intellectual Property Review *
