Why don't you give exact delivery time?

This book brings together articles by leading international scholars from diverse disciplinary perspectives who focus on the legal, social and cultural dimensions of intellectual properties - including patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and rights of publicity.

The volume also directs critical attention to the significance of intellectual property in contemporary processes of globalization and political economy.
