我们都知道美国是一个判例法国家,但是判例数据库或者教科书都非常贵。今年8月,美国一些著名法学院的教授联合起来,发布了一本真正开源的专利法案例教科书,内容包括专利法历史、经济学观点、现代专利制度概述、专利文件及其权利要求、专利保护主题、实用性、披露、在先公开、显而易见性、侵权、侵权抗辩和救济措施等。

Less than a handful of casebooks are truly open source, in the sense of being fully modifiable. Patent Law: An Open-Source Casebook is the first patent law casebook that provides adopting professors, students, and others the ability to fully modify its contents. This file comprises the casebook in its entirety, including the cover, table of contents, preface, and chapters covering historical and economic perspectives on patent law, an overview of the modern patent system, the patent document and its claims, subject matter eligibility, utility, disclosure, anticipation, obviousness, infringement, defenses, and remedies.
