Book Description
This book is a revised and updated edition of a major work first published in 2001 under the auspices of the Intellectual Property Committee of the International Bar Association. As a comparative cross-jurisdictional analysis of the practice, theory, scope, and types of design protection, it will continue to be of immeasurable value to lawyers and others involved in industrial design. Industrial designs are particularly interesting because the laws in many countries attempt in different ways to find a balance between protection for the artistic creation and the freedom to use the purely functional, and between the proprietary rights of the creator and the public domain rights of the competitor. The third edition is comprised of twenty-five country reports, each written by one or more prominent intellectual property lawyer(s) in the country covered. To facilitate cross-jurisdictional comparison, each report is structured according to the following sequence of topics: new developments in each jurisdiction; conventions and legislation; definition of what constitutes a protectable design; originality /novelty; duration of protection; infringement; defences to infringement; procedures for filing application for registration; and expunging, cancelling, or varying registration. Prominent new developments covered in the third edition include new chapters from South Korea, Russia and Turkey as well as continuing coverage of the impact of the European Community Design Directive, the adoption of the Hague Agreement with corresponding major changes to US and Canadian design law and practice, the newly revised Japanese Design Law, and China’s revised Guidelines for Examination. Each jurisdiction’s currently applicable legislation, regulation, and case law is summarized and analysed.

Under current intellectual property laws, industrial designs (ID) may potentially be protected through design patents, trade dress, and copyright. In addition, the Vessel Hull Design Protection Actestablished a specialized, or sui generis, intellectual property right for the protection of boat hull designs. Some experts argue that the present intellectual property regime does not adequately protect ID. Contents of this report: (1) ID and Intellectual Property: Copyright; Trade Dress; Design Patents; Vessel Hull Design Protection; (2) Current Issues in ID Protection: Intellectual Property Rights in Fashion Designs; U.S. Adherence to the Hague Convention; Auto Spare Parts; Judicial Developments Concerning ID Patents; (3) Issues in Innovation and Competition.

Book Description
To make designs that work and endure (and are also legal), designers need to know—or be able to find—an endless number of details. Whether it's what kind of glue needs to be used on a certain surface, metric equivalents, thread sizes, or how to apply for a patent, these details are essential and must be readily available so designers can create successful products efficiently. The Industrial Design Reference & Specification Book provides designers with a comprehensive handbook they can turn to over and over again. These pages are filled with information that is essential to successful product design, including information on measurement conversions, trademark and copyright standards, patents and product-related intellectual property rights/standards, setting up files for prototyping and production runs, and manufacturing and packaging options to optimize the design. It is an essential resource for any industrial or product designer.

Book Description
This area of the law in Canada is governed by two statutes, the Copyright Act RSC 1985 and the Industrial Design Act RSC 1985. Accordingly, this reference source is arranged in two parts, the first dealing with copyright and the second, industrial design. Each part provides authoritative coverage of such issues as registration, licensing and assignment procedures, as well as what constitutes infringement, and each is equipped with its own index, table of cases and precedents. The primary legislation is reproduced in full, along with relevant regulations and fees, the regular updating ensuring the currency and reliability of both parts.

Book Description
Industry in the United States of America has shown an increased interest in industrial design protection. This conclusion is based on several recent developments, including significant court decisions and an increased number of design patent applications received by the Patent and Trademark Office (PTO). Another important fact is the renewed effort to improve industrial design protection, by adding an additional form of industrial designs intellectual property law. The basic intellectual property law (hereinafter all reference to the law will be U.S.A. law unless otherwise indicated) available now for industrial design protection is the design patent, but there has been significant use of trademark law and some copyright law for certain designs. The consensus in the legal community and many industries is that a better way is needed to protect industrial designs. Generally, the present systems take too long to obtain protection. These rights are difficult to enforce in court and, usually, it is not clear what industrial design features are protected.
