This interesting and substantial book contains papers from a conference held in Singapore in 2009. Its focus is the problematic intersection between intellectual property and competition law and it looks at the issue from an Asian perspective. The area is one of tension in all jurisdictions but nowhere more so than in Asia, where both laws are relatively late arrivals on the scene. The subject matter is thus considered in the context of developing economies where the role of innovation is crucial to economic growth. The heavy representation of economists amongst the authors means that issues are thoroughly examined from an economic viewpoint. In addition, chapters consider issues of more general significance about the economic approach to competition law analysis and enforcement.
