‘In a tour de force of gender and intellectual property (IP) which ambitiously sets the agenda for feminist aspirations in the field, its contributors document how IP law has historically excluded – and continues to exclude – women and others who do not fit the normative ideal [...] Through diverse perspectives, methodologies and subject matters the contributors to A Research Agenda for Intellectual Property Law and Gender therefore pose important questions and reflections for a feminist IP law of the future.’
