- Summary
- "There continue to be important changes in copyright law as the United States accommodates itself to the Berne Convention and develops means to take account of new technologies. This fourth edition of the leading guide to U.S. copyright law puts these changes in a form and context that will make sense to anyone who is concerned about their rights under the law."--BOOK JACKET. "The new material includes case law on databases and compilations, new provisions for copyrighting architectural designs and distributing software, the latest work on "look-and-feel" cases, the ongoing interpretation of the moral rights of creators implied in the Berne Convention, the implications of the Kinko's case, and new guidelines for off-air videotaping for educational use. Beginning with this edition, semiannual updates will be available."--Jacket.
