‘Patent Law in Greater China provides some of the most comprehensive, up-to-date and contextualized analyses of Chinese patent law. Featuring expert contributors with diverse background and deep inside knowledge, this edited volume strikes a good balance between scholarly analysis and practical tips. The book should be on the desk of everybody who handles patent-related matters in Greater China.’
– Peter K. Yu, Drake University Law School, US
‘Chinese intellectual property law has been one of the fields in which it has been most difficult to obtain an accurate, reliable and intelligible perspective. The achievement in putting together Patent Law in Greater China is therefore all the more laudable. Chapters from practitioners, administrators, academics and the business world give this work a degree of relevance and immediacy and show how the complex and initially puzzling interplay of law and practice in China and the economies within her orbit can be depicted and understood.’
– Jeremy Phillips, Queen Mary Intellectual Property Research Institute, UK
‘Drs Luginbühl and Ganea have put together an impressive and thorough survey of patent law in the PRC, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. The book covers policy making aspects, patentability requirements (with specific chapters on biotechnological, chemical, pharmaceutical and software-related inventions ), rights and exceptions, employee inventions, rights in designs and utility models, but also patent prosecution (domestic and PCT), infringement, and the interface with competition law. This timely book will be useful for both practitioners and scholars.’
