This book takes a different approach examining copyright in the 21st Century and challenges the basic tenets of the copyright laws for relevancy today.

A helpful guide for lawyers and creators in all sectors of arts and entertainment, this collection assembles contributions from many of the leading figures in law practice and academia. The book offers a useful summary of copyright basics, then explores particular fields through a general introduction, contributor essays, and a landmark case illustrating the application of copyright norms to a dispute of legal and human interest. The concluding chapter forecasts future treatment of the key legal issues explored in this volume. Jane C. Ginsburg, Morton L. Janklow Professor of Literary and Artistic Property Law, Columbia University School of Law
