Reviews

<br> Creation without Restraint is a call to promote innovation by promoting competition. As the authors point out, if we want real competition, it is intellectual property, not antitrust, law that we need to fix. <br>--Mark A. Lemley, William H. Neukom Professor, Stanford Law School <br><p><br> This is a terrific book. Creation without Restraint uses antitrust law as a starting point for a thorough rethinking of patent and copyright policy. It develops the important idea, adapted from antitrust, that an IP statute should be interpreted in light of its underlying purpose. The authors show how economic analysis, so influential in antitrust, can be applied to IP law, and offer useful, provocative proposals for reform. Creation without Restraint is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand-and improve-the law's treatment of innovation. <br>--C. Scott Hemphill, Professor of Law, Columbia Law School <br><p><br> Few regulatory problems are more vexing than the relationship between competition and innovation. Bohannan and Hovenkamp's investigation of the problem is sensible, balanced, and comprehensive. Creation without Restraint is a wonderful book for anyone wanting to get up to speed on the key contemporary questions in innovation policy. <br>--Daniel A. Crane, Professor of Law, University of Michigan <br><p><br>
