In The Oxford Introductions to U.S. Law: Intellectual Property, prominent intellectual property scholar Dan Hunter provides a precise, engaging overview and careful analysis of current laws of intellectual property and their history. Hunter first focuses on the central areas of intellectual property law, including copyright, patent, trademark, and trade secrets. He then explores the politics, economics, psychology and rhetoric of possession and control that influence and interact with this area of law.
Hunter explains how intellectual property has contributed greatly to the innovations that we, as a society, need in our modern lives. He also describes ways in which the expansion of intellectual property can reduce innovation by stopping others from implementing great ideas or producing new work. Hunter helps readers think about modern intellectual property in a way that allows them to see how innovation and progress are linked to intellectual property law, and how small changes in the laws have had significant consequences for our society. Ultimately, Hunter helps readers form their own views about the various areas within the arena of intellectual property.

"In The Oxford Introductions to U.S. Law: Intellectual Property, Dan Hunter does not simply provide a clear and instructive text on the legal principles of intellectual property; he also contextualizes intellectual property law by examining the interplay between policy and practice in contemporary debates over IP expansion in a way that both unpacks basic assumptions about intellectual property theory and policy and encourages critical thinking. Dan Hunter's language is graceful and conversational, with a wit that makes the book eminently enjoyable to read."
--Megan M. Carpenter, Associate Professor of Law and Director of the Center for Law and Intellectual Property, Texas Wesleyan University School of Law
