Reviews

Advance praise: 'Proceeding from a highly provocative attack on corporate media and its effect on our creative lives, Big Copyright versus the People offers a multitude of wonderfully inventive proposals for reform.' Barton Beebe, New York University School of Law Advance praise: 'A delightful catalog of clever ways to keep Big Copyright in check and open up more space for creativity in people's daily lives.' James Grimmelmann, Cornell Tech and Cornell Law School Advance praise: 'Big Copyright versus the People is not just a critique of an out-of-control system that privileges private over public interests - though it certainly is that. It's also an essential treasury of ideas about how to fix that system: some down-to-earth and some absolutely mind-expanding. No one who cares about the future of ideas should miss this erudite, accessible, and stylish volume.' Peter Jaszi, American University Washington College of Law
