Visit LexisNexis Butterworths at www.lexisnexis.com.au Preface It is now more than 25 years since the first edition of this book appeared. Over that period, there have been many significant changes to the legal regimes with which it is concerned. But the central challenge for the law of intellectual property arguably remains the same: to find a sensible and sustainable balance between the interests of those who create, compile or seek to exploit ideas or information, and those who wish to use, imitate or build on their work. Once again, the developments considered in this edition, which is generally updated to August 2017, illustrate the difficulty in striking that balance. We review the Productivity Commission’s proposals for sweeping changes to Australia’s intellectual property regimes, including the introduction of new rights to use or access copyright material and a higher threshold for the patentability of inventions. Updates are also provided on other legislative reforms introduced since the fifth edition, relevant recommendations from the Harper Review of competition law, and the Turnbull Government’s National Innovation and Science Agenda. In addition, the new edition analyses a wide range of recent cases. These include important decisions on (among many other things) the availability of orders to require internet service providers to disable access to overseas websites that facilitate copyright infringement, the patentability of isolated genetic material, and the nature and scope of patent licences. The most notable change in this edition, which retains the structure of its predecessor, is to the team of authors. We are very pleased to welcome two new contributors. William van Caenegem has taken over Chapters 1–2 (introduction and remedies) and 16–20 (misappropriation of business reputation and trade marks), while Charles Lawson has assumed responsibility for patents and plant breeder’s rights (Chapters 11–16) and international aspects (Chapter 21). Of the remaining chapters, Andrew Stewart has updated the material on confidential information (Chapters 3–4), Judith Bannister has been responsible for copyright and designs (Chapters 5–10) and Adam Liberman has covered commercialisation (Chapter 22). Sadly, this edition also sees the retirement of our friend and colleague Philip Griffith as an author. He had been an integral member of the writing team for the previous three editions, covering the period from 2004 to 2014. Like that of original author Jill McKeough, his stamp is very much still on this book. We thank him for his contributions, both past and ongoing, and wish him well for the future. We would also like to thank Clare McShanag for kindly allowing us to use her striking artwork on the cover, Irene Nikoloudakis and Colin Fong for assistance with research, the ever-helpful India Lopez for her diligent editing, and Jocelyn Holmes and her colleagues at LexisNexis for their role in getting this new edition out.
