Reviews

<br> The author, who heads the global IT/communications practice at Baker & Mackenzie LLP, covers all sorts of different aspects of IP that should be appropriately covered by an outsourcing agreement -- and there are many such aspects. <br>--IPKat<br> this is a highly readable book which I certainly am pleased to have on my book shelf and one which will appeal to everyone involved in negotiating and drafting outsourcing agreements, at whatever level. <br>--Alan Meneghetti, Clyde & Co LLP, London <br>Journal of Intellectual Property Law and Practice<br>


`It distils the wisdom and knowledge which can only be gained from hard won experience of negotiating outsourcing contracts into a readable and useful survey of the main issues...I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone interested in outsourcing and the related contractual and legal issues' Clive Davies, Communications Law `Upon reading it, I have learnt how little I knew and how much much I can learn. Kimball conveys a huge amount of information on outsourcing, from initial negotiations to actions taken upon insolvency, both from a UK and US perspective. It is a text written by a vastly experienced lawyer walking you through the outsourcing minefield from start to finish...The book reflects the author's 15 years experience in the profession. He utilises previous experiences of both failed and successful contracts to illustrate the potential problems of the outsourcing process, while at the same time offering opinions on best practice... Kimball's text is sufficiently thorough that it is all you would need, In fact, I wish it had been there five years ago.' Tom Durbin, International Journal of Law and IT `This paperback book is an excellent practitioner's guide to outsourcing. It distils the wisdom and knowledge which can only be gained from hard won experience of negotiating outsourcing contracts into readable and useful survey of the main issues...I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone interested in outsourcing and the related contractual and legal issues.' Clive Davies, Senior Counsel, Fujitsu Services LTD, Communications Law 16.1
