This journal delivers critical authoritative analysis of biotech patents and litigation, regulatory and legislative activity, and trade-related aspects of biotechnology. As the first journal in the field of biotechnology law nearly 40 years ago, it provides exclusive access to historic developments that are informing legal cases today. The journal is particularly devoted to industries in which new biotechnology products are developing the most rapidly: pharmaceuticals, chemicals, agriculture, food processing, energy, mineral recovery, and waste treatment. This journal is highly recommended for law firms or corporate legal department library collections contributing research services to biotechnology research or a patent law practice.
