Edward Elgar Publishing has released a paperback edition of the book Copyright, Contracts, Creators – New Media, New Rules by Prof. Giuseppina D’Agostino. Copyright, Contracts, Creators evaluates the efficacy of current copyright law to address the contracting and use of creative works. It looks in particular at freelance works and argues that their copyright treatment on a national and international level is inadequate to resolve ambiguities in the contracting and uses of the work. The book has been called “a must read for the intellectual property legal community…” by the Honorable Justice Marshall Rothstein of the Supreme Court of Canada.
