Cambridge
University Press is publishing a book on the history of IP in 50 objects.
ABOUT THE BOOK
What do the Mona
Lisa, the light bulb, and a Lego brick have in common? The answer —
intellectual property (IP) — may be suprising, because IP laws are all about
us, but go mostly unrecognized. They are complicated and arcane, and few people
understand why they should care about copyright, patents, and trademarks. In
this lustrous collection, Claudy Op den Kamp and Dan Hunter have brought
together a group of contributors — drawn from around the globe in fields
including law, history, sociology, science and technology, media, and even
horticulture — to tell a history of IP in 50 objects. These objects not only
demonstrate the significance of the IP system, but also show how IP has
developed and how it has influenced history. Each object is at the core of a
story that will be appreciated by anyone interested in how great innovations
offer a unique window into our past, present, and future.
