Patent Law and Practice: An Indian Perspective, (Paperback)

Patent law plays a pivotal role in the global knowledge economy by protecting inventions, encouraging innovation, and facilitating technology transfer. In a world where intellectual property has become a driver of competitiveness and economic growth, the patent system is not merely a legal framework but a powerful policy instrument. India, with its unique socio-economic challenges and rapidly expanding technological landscape, presents a distinctive case study in how patent law and practice evolve to balance competing interests - the protection of inventors' rights, the encouragement of industrial growth, and the safeguarding of public interest.This book, "Patent Law and Practice: An Indian Perspective," undertakes a comprehensive exploration of the Indian patent regime. It seeks to provide a doctrinal understanding of substantive and procedural aspects of patent law while simultaneously situating them within broader social, economic, and policy frameworks. By combining theoretical exposition with practical insights, the book aspires to serve both as an academic reference and a professional guide.
