Synopsis

This new book shows how applying traditional legal action to disputes in the rapidly developing computer industry is generating unpredictable and often bizarre results. Written for practicing attorneys as well as computer professionals who need to understand the legal aspects of their business, the book includes current legal doctrine and addresses topical issues in the fields of intellectual property, artificial intelligence, and internet law. The author suggests several solutions to current problems -- from changes in the law, to encryption and other technical responses, to a fundamental shift in social and legal thinking to accommodate emerging technologies.
