The book is a collection of articles by different authors. Most are good. Found the article about "International Mergers / Canadian Prespective" silly, as it is hard to consider Canada as "International". Many of these articles are available for free on the Internet, but if you dont have time to search, the book is a good instant collection of useful articles.

Since the publisher could not bother to put in a table of contents or exerpt, which is how you sell books like this, (note to author, find a new, smarter, technology savy publisher for your IP TECHNOLOGY book) here it is:
