Reviews

'... this is an excellent and thought-provoking work. Professor Lever has succeeded in putting together a collection which has the feel of a conversation rather than a set of discrete articles, found, in particular, in the way in which the contributors constantly refer to one another's work. I recommend it to anyone interested in understanding the latest work on philosophy and IP.' Francis Davey, Journal of Intellectual Property Law and Practice
