The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks, Trade Secrets & Licensing

There was very little useful information in the book about the details of obtaining patents or trademarks – a lot of legal definitions and the like but few nuts and bolts for anyone looking to apply for them.

Gilbert is very good at communicating most complex issues at a “explain it to me like I am a six year old” level. And while the book is NOT a substitute for an IP attorney, after reading it you will be able to ask intelligent questions and understand the answers and their ramifications. If you are a hi-tech executive or an internet entrepreneur, this is it. Real world examples help dramatically, and the AOL’s You’ve Got Mail “success” story was a real eye opener….

I was hoping to learn some really helpful information about licensing, but I was disappointed finding that the writer only scratched the surface. I learned more in a 15 minute conversation with an attorney.
