Reviews of previous editions: Now in its third edition this comprehensive text whic is targeted primarily at students will also benefit lawyers needing an up-to-date reference book on intellectual property law. Its strength lies in its currency (1 January 2008), depth of research and comprehensive coverage of this large body of laws , cases and regulations. - Australian Intellectual Property Law Bulletin, Vol 21 (6), December 2008 It is always an ambitious project to cover the field of all intellectual property rights in a single volume. Reynolds and Stoianoff have managed this challenge, and the book covers copyright, patents and trade mark law in detail, but also provides an overview of designs, plant breeders' rights and circuit layout rights. The book will be a useful companion for practising lawyers seeking a clear answer to core IP laws and principles. - Carol Burnton and Julian Lincoln, Law Institute Journal of Victoria, October 2008 This text continues to constitute an outstanding and comprehensive collection of intellectual property law cases, relevant discussion and, at a practical level, a comprehensive source well suited to professional use. - BJM, The Law Letter, Journal of the Law Society of Tasmania, Spring 2008 - Issue 101 Intellectual Property takes the reader to the forefront of this dynamic area of law. As in previous editions it provides a comprehensive, in-depth and engaging exposition of the principles of Intellectual Property Law and selected case extracts that illustrate the law's evolution and challenges - NSW Law Society Journal, June 2008 The text is well structured with each subject matter discussed in a logical progression. The end of each chapter contains extracts of key judgments selected by the authors as authoritative in the ara as well as cases that are illustrative of the relevant legal principles...The third edition of this text reflects the law as at January 1, 2008 and provides a useful, comprehensive and insightful reference for students and practitioners in relation to the ever-evolving field of intellectual property. - Proctor, Queensland Law Society Journal, June 2008
