Copyright law
by
Copyright Law offers a comprehensive resource for practitioners, students and those in copyright-dependent industries. It deals with all the private law regimes within the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth) - proprietary copyright, technical protection measures, performers' rights and moral rights. The work has a strong focus on Australian jurisprudence and law reform, and provides expositions of complex matters within their treaty law, litigious, technological, historical or political contexts. Particularly thorough treatments are given to areas that frequently present difficulty in practice, such as implied licences, title, Copyright Tribunal jurisdiction, the interface with design law and copyright damages. The work also provides an explanation of territoriality, private international law principles relating to copyright and jurisdictional attachment. This is done in a way that both delineates the limits of Australian copyright jurisdiction, and sets out the various pathways for entry into that jurisdiction. This book represents a much-needed cohesive account of the area, in which lateral cross-cutting influences between the various topics are identified.

Copyright law and practice
by
This exposition of the Law and Practice of Copyright is aimed primarily at practitioners. The work is not intended to be exhaustive; rather it is a practical guide to enduring principles which have been adapted by the legislature to contemporary conditions. Sections in the text on jurisdictional problems arising from trans-national access to information, file swapping and various new methods of piracy, guide the reader through developments. The author both explains the law as it stands and supports the continuing but measured recalibration of the legislation. As such, this is a most commendable contribution to the current understanding of copyright law in Australia.
