Industry Reviews
'Of all of the branches of IP law, design law is the least harmonized. Look no further than the disparity in the names given to design rights in various jurisdictions- design patent, registered design, design model, industrial design, etc. Professor Beldiman has assembled a knowledgeable group of design law experts that span the globe who share insights on, and help bring clarity to, this underdeveloped area of intellectual property. The result of these considerable efforts is a must-have resource for design right practitioners, jurists, and scholars alike.' -- Christopher V. Carani, Esq., McAndrews, Held & Malloy, Ltd, US
'This insightful book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of design law in today's dynamic world. It expertly explores the impact of digital designs, sustainability concerns, and ongoing legal debates on design protection. With contributions from a global team of experts, the book provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking analysis of international design law. I highly recommend it to practitioners, scholars, policymakers, and anyone seeking to navigate the ever-evolving landscape of design law.' -- Irene Calboli, Texas A&M University School of Law, US
'Design protection is a vast, chaotic, and puzzling area of law. It is also captivating as fundamental questions lurk here. What aspects of design are protected, how, and for what innovation policy objective? As a result, the law's existing flexibility enables strategic maneuvering. In Design Law: Global Law and Practice, recognized expert in international and comparative intellectual property Dana Beldiman has carefully curated a set of tight essays that examine comparative and international design protection law as well as the cutting-edge issues that these laws must grapple with. The breadth of the topics combined with the depth of analysis makes this an invaluable resource I will turn to again and again. But, as is true with a successful design, the volume as a whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Trends in the law emerge and the comparative project offers us critical insights for addressing the law's inherent conundrums.' -- Christine Haight Farley, American University, US
