Description: "This book takes as its primary focus the copyright and other intellectual property issues which arise out of the commercial exploitation and digitisation of images. In particular, the nature of digital images makes more evident the legal, ethical and practical problems that are as yet unresolved in the print media. Fourteen articles written by prominent intellectual property lawyers and government officials discuss legal, policy and practical issues in the protection and commercial exploitation of images and image collections."--BOOK JACKET.
