- Summary:
- What is a copyright? When does it have to be renewed? How do you inherit it? How do you determine the copyright in a letter or an illustration? What defines a "work for hire" arrangement or "fair use"? This newly revised edition of Every Writer's Guide to Copyright and Publishing Law answers these pertinent questions in clear, accessible language and features a completely new chapter on cutting-edge electronic copyright issues. It also covers contracts, libel, privacy, bankruptcy, wills, moral rights, "Son of Sam" laws, protection and remedies against copyright infringement, and product liability. Written for writers, publishers, and lawyers, this down-to-earth desk reference is indispensable.
