Intellectual Property Rights and the Life Science Industries: A Twentieth Century History (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138277823)

This book analyses the history of the international patent regime and the life science industries, both of which can be traced back to the late 19th century. The development of patent law is inextricably linked to expanding capacities to elucidate, manipulate and commercially exploit the molecular properties of micro-organisms, plants, animals and other organic raw materials.
