Reviews

'Professor Ghidini has long since made himself a worldwide reputation as a leading scholar. He is a profound critique of intellectual property protection that follows rigid property logic, and favours the functionalist competition/innovation logic. Innovation, Competition and Consumer Welfare in Intellectual Property Law is truly enriching reading.' - Hanns Ullrich, European University Institute, Firenze, Italy 'We in the United States have much to learn not only from Gustavo Ghidini's careful analysis of modern trends in the European IP regime but also from his thoughtful development of the thesis that free competition should be understood as the overarching principle guiding both IP protection and what we call antitrust law.' - Rudolph J.R. Peritz, New York Law School, US and author of Competition Policy in America
