The Economics of the European Patent System
IP Policy for Innovation and Competition
By Dominique Guellec and Bruno van Pottelsberghe de la Potterie
Why does society allow, or even encourage, private appropriation of inventions? When do patents encourage competition, when do they hamper it? How should society design the compromise between the interest of the inventor and the interest of the users of patented inventions? How should the patent system adapt to new technological areas? These questions and many more are addressed by the authors in this groundbreaking analysis of the economics behind the European patent system.

Procedural law under the EPC 2000
By Andrea Veronese and Peter Watchorn
The European Patent Convention was updated at the diplomatic conference held in Munich in the year 2000 and the amendments came into force on 13th December 2007. The changes were far-reaching and formed a paradigm shift in the way the EPO operates from a legal point of view. The current version of the Convention comprises over 170 articles and 165 implementing regulations. This book is designed to guide the reader through the "thickets of the law", and to help him or her to find all of the information needed to process an application, patent, opposition, appeal, or any other request before the EPO. The book, which is intended to be a reference text for patent professionals and candidates for the European Qualifying Examination, deals thoroughly and systematically with the different topics but also fits all parts into “the bigger picture”.
