Reviews
Essential reading for those interested in agricultural law, biodiversity regulation and proposals for the regulation of access to genetic resources. . . . India has taken the lead in the protection of farmers' rights and farmers' varieties, and in international discussions on the protection of genetic resources, and this volume of Indian scholarship on Indian intellectual property law and agriculture provides an alternative perspective to the Western scholarship on intellectual property rights (IPRs). In addition to chapters on intellectual property and agriculture, it looks at the relationship between biodiversity conservation and intellectual property. -European Intellectual Property Review, 41(7), 2019, Review by Michael Blakeney, University of Western Australia
