Intellectual Property (IP) laws protect inventions, like new medicines, by giving creators exclusive rights to make and sell them. This encourages innovation because companies can make a profit from their discoveries. Balancing IP rights and public health is crucial. Some solutions include allowing generic versions of drugs after a certain period, using compulsory licences to let others produce the medicine in emergencies, and promoting global cooperation to make sure life-saving treatments are affordable and accessible to everyone, regardless of where they live or their economic status. This book presents the complex subject of intellectual property laws in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
