'It is a laudable and, according to the editors, unprecedented, attempt to bring together contributions from a range of authors on a key issue facing the intellectual property world at present. ... The authors are distinguished economists, political scientists and legal experts. ... this is a thorough and stimulating work, bringing together diverse views of a range of experts on the impact of IP on efforts to tackle the developing world crisis. Given how important and urgent it is for this global issue to be tackled, it is hoped that it will be widely read and provoke greater, and better informed, debate among the broader IP world.'
