Comments on Books and Articles “I’m so pleased to have a copy of your book. You’ve made an enormous contribution to practical understanding, and in an elegant and thoughtful way.” Pauline Newman, Judge, Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit “ ... I again observe that you are doing not only some of the most important writing in this field, but the only writing about the basic principles of how the patent law should work.” Pauline Newman, Judge, Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit “Thanks for sending me a complimentary copy of your book. I indeed have consulted it in the past and look forward to receiving the new edition.” Randall Rader, Judge, Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit “Thank you very much for asking West to provide me with the copy of the second edition of your book, Patent Law: Legal and Economic Principles. I have referred to it on several occasions and am certain that I will continue to do so.” Vaughn R. Walker, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Northern District of California “Patent Law: Legal and Economic Principles provides new and valuable insights into the economic basis which underlies the protection of technology given by patents. It is a valuable addition to any serious practitioner’s library.” Herbert F. Schwartz, Fish & Neave and Adjunct Professor, University of Pennsylvania Law School, author of Patent Law and Practice (Federal Judicial Center) “This book contains thought provoking insights into many of the statutory and judicial ‘rules’ which practitioners regularly use. This book will provide novel and thoughtful guidance to both attorneys and courts.” Alfred L. Michaelsen, Vice President and General Patent Counsel, Corning Incorporated “John Schlicher’s new book on intellectual property law leads me to claim him, with heightened pride, as a former student. John came to law school with a strong background in the physical sciences and the associated quantitative tools. Those skills facilitated the study of economics. As is often the case, learning the law itself was the easiest part. Now come after many years of professional practice in the electrical property area, he brings all those strengths together in this intellectually ambitious and yet totally practical treatise. The book will certainly change the attitude of many lawyers and intellectual property field. Our national, economy, and the international economy, will be well served if he manages to bring about change in the intellectual property laws is well.” William F. Baxter, Stanford Law School, and Assistant Attorney General, Department of Justice, Antitrust Division (commenting on Patent Law : Legal and Economic Principles) “In glancing through your ‘magnum opus’, I was impressed with its clarity and thoroughness. I am looking forward to a moment’s peace to settled down and enjoy an obviously well-written treatise on this interesting subject.” Gerald J. Mossinghoff, Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks, and President, Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association “I had wanted to write you earlier, but I have been wrapped up in this extraordinary book called Patent Law: Legal and Economic Principles. It is fascinating to read a treatise on patent law that examines the issues from a critical economic perspective. I have been looking for a book that helps me understand how the law has dealt with important economic problems and intellectual property such as patent scope, nonobviousness requirements, and conditions for infringement. While other books are good at describing the precedential record, yours combines the case law with insightful economic analysis. ... Congratulations on a job very well done” Richard J. Gilbert, Professor of Economics, University of California, Berkeley, Founder, Law and Economics Consulting Group, and former Chief Economist, Antitrust Division, Department of Justice “Thanks very much for your note of 12 November and for the kindly-inscribed copy of your book, Licensing Intellectual Property. You continually amaze me, not only by your scholarly productivity, but by the very high level at which you pursue it -- unusual for a practicing lawyer, indeed!” Paul Goldstein, Professor, Stanford Law School |
