The Public Domain
The latest work of James Boyle, The Public Domain, is concentrated upon the so-called war of the century of information and digital technologies, the dispute about intellectual property in particular. The author insists on free usage and sharing without limits all the material of innovation and cultural heritage. By the example of numerous life situations he explains in what way some sheet music or genetic discovery find itself to be someone’s property today, coming to a conclusion of the essential importance of Free Culture Movement. According to Boyle, people will become poorer if the “commons of the mind” are still inaccessible due to copyright, patent, and trademark laws.This award-winning book casts a new positive light on cultural and legal debate.
