The First Book Devoted to Settlement of Patent Disputes. There two reasons for a book devoted to settlement of patent disputes and litigation. One is that settlement is more important than litigation. The effects of patents on people and businesses are overwhelmingly defined by the terms of settlement and license agreements and only rarely by judicial decisions. The other is that the subject of patent settlements has not received the attention it deserves. There are many books on litigation and licensing. Until now, there was no book directed to settlement. Organized in four sections, this resource is designed to help everyone involved improve patent settlement outcomes and processes. Throughout the book, numerous charts and graphs demonstrate the book's key concepts and pertinent data. Many charts are shown in color for ease of use.
