Summary:

This book contains 22 chapters focusing on the emerging legal, social and regulatory issues pertaining to biotechnology and intellectual property rights (IPRs) in agriculture, food, pharmaceutics, health care and industry. Expert opinions are also presented by premier academicians, scientists and industrialists to counter critical questions, such as whether the existing IP frameworks at both national and international levels are durable to withstand the challenges posed by contemporary biotechnology.
