I picked this up from the library as a bit of light reading. Ever since taking an intellectual property class in my program I have been really interested in it. When I saw this book I knew that it would be something I would want to read. I thought this book would be about all intellectual property but the author really focuses on copyright mostly with some mention of trademarks and barely anything about patents.

The author does a great job of explaining copyright and trademarks. I also feel that he explained fair use (which he is constantly mentioning) and public domain works well. He does seem to harp on fair use and public domain a lot. I do agree with him that fair use is being eroded and that the public domain is not being protected.

Recently I haven't had much time to go to the library, so today I was ecstatic to finally go there. While I was there I picked up three books. Two of the books I had already planned on reading, Jane Austen's England (Thanks to SusannaG for letting me know about this book) and Copyfraud and Other Abuses of Intellectual Property Law.

Stonehenge: A New Understanding jumped off the shelf at me. I was obsessed with Stonehenge in the fifth grade, so my inner fifth-grader squealed when she saw this on the shelf.
