Abstract

The book gives an overview of norms and procedures of the international protection of trademark and copyright, two intellectual property rights (IPRs) with an inherently international scope, and is written for the international IP practitioner, from the perspective of the (American) IP right-holder. The book is a practical guide identifying the applicable rules and bodies that might be used to vindicate IPRs. In that capacity, it provides a summary of rules and practices, and copies of the actual forms to be used, with treaties included as appendices.
