Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells European practitioners not just about the framework of US patent law, but how it is applied. Far more than a revised update, this second edition is twice as valuable to European patent practitioners as the previous edition. This book covers most of the basic situations that occur in preparing and prosecuting US applications and enforcing US patents as well as some of the unusual situations. The author, drawing on her recent years at a US firm, has augmented each chapter with practical information--including lines of argumentation to overcome obviousness rejections--and added new chapters, as well as much more detail on petitions and appeals, post-grant proceedings, and litigation.
