5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the first Internet Law treatise, June 21, 2000

Providing a treatise on Internet and Online Law is not easy. It is almost impossible. The range of topics to deal with includes all the main substantial law subjects and intersects with various elements of International Law and Jurisdiction just to name a few. This book does it egregiously. I used it for research: the only limit is that focuses mainly on U.S. Law (despite other countries are coming up with interesting solutions and answers). As far as the rest is concerned, it is all positive: updated, wide range of case law fully explained, easy to read (with at least a basic understanding of the law and the internet jargon). It also provides practical examples and solutions for those who are engaged or wish to engage in the Internet Business. I also found very interesting the Chapter regarding Securities Law and Copyright.

5.0 out of 5 stars A useful professional-level treatise, November 29, 2011

Even though Amazon lists this as part of its "intellectual property" series, this book covers more than IP. It's a looseleaf treatise that is also available online (but not in a Kindle edition), updated twice a year. Unlike Ian Ballon's more comprehensive (and more expensive) multi-volume work, this book seems to be intended either as a desk reference for those familiar with Internet law, or as a read-the-entire-chapter work for those who want an in-depth introduction to one of the topics covered. As such it is a nice single-volume work. It is heavily-sourced and the sources are generally kept up-to-date. Although it is a scholarly publication, it is practical rather than theoretical. It is clearly targeted at practicing attorneys.
