Patent Law in Australia Fourth Edition - Book

Patent Law in Australia Fourth Edition provides an indispensable guide to obtaining, maintaining, enforcing and challenging the validity of patents in Australia.

Balancing both the practical nature of IP Australia processes and in-depth analysis of statute and case law, Patent Law in Australia navigates every aspect of the patenting process, with detailed commentary on the law pertaining to each stage.

Since the last edition published in 2018, there has been steady flow of case law developments enriching patent jurisprudence.  The Fourth Edition is thoroughly updated to reflect this, particularly in relation to the following elements of patent law: 

• Support and sufficiency

• Computer-implemented inventions and business methods

• Inventorship and AI

• Innovation patents

• The right to repair patented goods; and

• Extension of term of patents.

Patent Law in Australia is substantially revised to reflect these developments and continues to provide the most respected and effective guide for patent attorneys, intellectual property lawyers and barristers.
