Review
‘… the scope and coverage of this book is broad and detailed … the book is very well written and makes an informed, interesting and valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about the role of copyright law in a digitised information economy.‘ CTLR, The Journal of E-commerce, Technology and Communications
'… an exceptionally accurate and well-documented examination of the most fundamental copyright exceptions and their operation within the UK copyright system. … a valuable resource, which deserves the attention of whoever wants to deepen his or her understanding of the fundamental values hidden among copyright exemptions.' European Intellectual Property Review
'… a concise yet comprehensive survey of the important topics and recent developments in the field of copyright exceptions in the digital age. … a meticulous assessment … extremely readable and the commentary enriched by the identification of problems, posing of questions, presentation of examples and scholarly insights. It is a must for anyone interested in this debate.' The Cambridge Law Journal
Product Description
Copyright ‘exceptions’ or ‘users’ rights’ have become a highly controversial aspect of copyright law. Most recently, Member States of the European Union have been forced to amend their systems of exceptions so as to comply with the Information Society Directive. Taking the newly amended UK legislation as a case study, this book examines why copyright exceptions are necessary and the forces that have shaped the present legislative regime in the UK. It seeks to further our understanding of the exceptions by combining detailed doctrinal analysis with insights gained from a range of other sources. The principal argument of the book is that the UK’s current system of ‘permitted acts’ is much too restrictive and hence is in urgent need of reform, but that paradoxically the Information Society Directive points the way towards a much more satisfactory approach.
