Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Explores the meaning of intellectual property in the new high-tech digital age, addressing the legal, social, and economic factors at work and provides a thought-provoking argument that those qualities that have made the Internet a dynamic force for creativity, freedom, and innovation could destroy the Intenet's potential.
Review:
"Sadly, Lessig's grim assessment is dead on....In the end, THE FUTURE OF IDEAS is less valuable as legal scholarship than as sweeping cultural criticism. It's a manifesto that shakes you up, making you aware of how much is lost when a culture turns 'ideas' into 'intellectual property."'
Daniel Zalewski, New York Times Book Review, 01/06/2002
Review:"This is vital reading for anyone concerned about protecting ideas and their expression in cyberspace or, indeed, in ending the ownership of ideas."
Andrew Allentuck, Globe and Mail (Toronto), 12/3/2001

Book Description: Random House USA Inc, United States, 2003. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Reprint. 202 x 133 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. The Internet revolution has come. Some say it has gone. In The Future of Ideas, Lawrence Lessig explains how the revolution has produced a counterrevolution of potentially devastating power and effect. Creativity once flourished because the Net protected a commons on which widest range of innovators could experiment. But now, manipulating the law for their own purposes, corporations have established themselves as virtual gatekeepers of the Net while Congress, in the pockets of media magnates, has rewritten copyright and patent laws to stifle creativity and progress. Lessig weaves the history of technology and its relevant laws to make a lucid and accessible case to protect the sanctity of intellectual freedom. He shows how the door to a future of ideas is being shut just as technology is creating extraordinary possibilities that have implications for all of us. Vital, eloquent, judicious and forthright, The Future of Ideas"is a call to arms that we can ill afford to ignore.
