Review Patent Prosecution / Oxford University Press, USA:

Patent Prosecution by David Boundy and Philip Furgang is an essential work that belongs on the desk of every attorney interested in obtaining the best patent possible for a client's business interests. With a highly practice-oriented approach that is both sophisticated and logical, the authors examine every aspect of patent prosecution, from the client's conception of the invention to application filing in the U. S. and foreign jurisdictions, negotiation with the U. S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) and patent issue and post-issue correction. Relevant statutes, rules and cases are discussed in relation to a particular task in the procedural flow. Patent Prosecution distils decades of high-level experience from two leading authorities on the subject, effectively giving readers access to a senior partner in the form of two comprehensive volumes.

Review The World Bank Legal Papers / Springer:

This text compiles the legal opinions and memoranda written by Ibrahim F. I. Shihata to the World Bank's Executive Directors during his tenure as the Bank's Vice President, then Senior Vice President and General Counsel which extended from August 1, 1983 to October 15, 1998. It also includes some of Mr. Shihata's notes to the Bank's Senior Management and some of his oral interventions before the Bank's Board of Executive Directors. In addition, the book comprises the major legal memoranda written by the staff of the World Bank's Legal Department under Mr. Shihata's supervision. Never before had the World Bank or any international organization for that matter authorized the publication of such a detailed record. By authorizing and indeed encouraging such a publication, the World Bank President and Executive Directors are making a significant contribution to the Bank's transparency and to the development of the law of international financial institutions. The book is characterized by the very broad coverage of the topics it addresses and the depth of its analysis. [+]
It provides a most relevant reading, not only to the lawyers of the World Bank and other global and regional development finance institutions, but also to members of the executive boards and management of these institutions as well as to all others concerned with issues of development, international law and international organizations. As the eighth book produced by Shihata, on matters related to the World Bank's work, it crowns his contribution to the varied and expanding fields this important institution continues to address.

The number and quality of the responses to his work provide evidence of the novelty and explanatory power of his ideas. These comprehensive volumes should enable the reader to sample the broad spectrum of Veblen's thought and that of his critics and interpreters. They include critical appraisals of the corpus of his published work as well as reinterpretations of his life and influence on the social sciences particularly economics, political science and sociology. This authoritative collection includes reprints of materials previously published by leading scholars on nearly every aspect of Veblen's life and work. It should be invaluable to professional scholars and graduate students who wish to heighten their understanding of the alternatives to formalism in the social studies.
