There is a complex legal framework developing to meet the technological challenges of modern commercial practice. This book examines international legal developments in four broad areas - contracts for products and services, the protection of intellectual property rights, litigation, and compliance. This book provides: international perspectives - important as national differences will survive harmonization; includes data protection - new EC directive; and key areas of modern commercial law, including contracts, intellectual property protection such as chip protection, litigation and regulatory compliance. Available exclusively in the Republic of South Africa, Namibia, Lesthio and Swaziland from Juta & Co.
