Since the 1970s, biotechnology has revolutionized agricultural research. The enormous potential, together with a landmark decision by the US Supreme Court to allow the patenting of genetically engineered organisms, has encouraged private-sector companies to invest in research programmes. The first edition of this title was published in 1998. Now fully revised and updated, with five completely new chapters, it presents information on intellectual property law in a simplified form, with a minimum of legal jargon.
