This review is from: On Mechanics of Patent Claim Drafting (Ring-bound)
Filing a patent application comprises essentially three parts; writing the disclosure and drawings, drafting the claims, and filing the required work and fees with the Patent Office (which includes dealing with the office actions, if any). This book focuses exclusively on the second of these three parts, writing the claims. The claims are the legal heart of the patent, since they will define exactly what is, and what is not, covered by the patent; the application will be rejected if the claims are too broad, or not supported, or fail to be specific in pointing out the invention; on the other hand, the patent will be useless if the claims are insufficiently inclusive, and a product can bypass the detailed claimed invention. This book covers the details of exactly how to write a good patent claim, that will satisfy the requirements of the U.S. Patent office, describe the invention clearly and distinctly point out the novel features, and cover the invention sufficiently to stand up in court. It is the classic how-to reference for the practicing patent agent or lawyer.

Excellent source to learn claim drafting--"Claim Bible for Patent",
By
This review is from: On Mechanics of Patent Claim Drafting (Ring-bound)
By far, this is the best book to refer to for writing patent claims. It covers in detail how to write 101 Statutory claims for product, process, manufacture, and composition of matter, and improvement thereof. Also, this book covers product-by-process claims, means plus function claims, Jepson claims and Markush groups. All three types of patent claims for utility, design and plant are covered.
However, at the end of the day, it is the supervisory patent attorney who tells you how he wants you to write the claims.
