Yearbook of Copyright and Media Law: Volume V, 2000

Up to date and informative, the Yearbook of Copyright and Media Law is now well-established as a key source of information and analysis for all copyright, media and entertainment law professionals. It is is designed to respond to practical developments and problem areas such as the Internet and Multimedia while also making a serious contribution to copyright and media law as a legal discipline. The central feature of the Yearbook is the range of annual surveys prepared by expert practising lawyers. Covering all issues from copyright, trademarks, licensing societies and new technology to libel, contempt of court and music contracts, the surveys contain considered and thorough analysis of the most recent developments in the UK, the EC, and beyond. The special survey in this yearbook focuses on definitions of film and there are in-depth articles on subjects of particular topicality such as the Microsoft judgment and the impact of The Human Rights Act and the Data Protection Act.
