This book focuses on the economic aspects of intellectual property
(IP). It includes considerations of the wider category of
intangible assets. However, the primary focus is devoted to patents
which the author argues are the most vivid example of the Tragedy
of Intangible Abundance (TIA). TIA touches upon a key issue in the
contemporary economy. On the one hand, there is an enormous supply
of IP, yet, on the other hand, such an abundance does not
necessarily solve existing issues but rather creates new ones as
well. This book elaborates on the reasons for the emergence of TIA
and its consequences. The author uses clear metaphors to explain
very complex issues. The book provides a valuable and
interdisciplinary analysis of the field and offers practical
solutions. It is based on the data collected by the author during
the qualitative research he conducted among a group of start-ups.
It presents guidance on determining which instrument is the most
efficient for a particular situation. It also provides arguments
for decision-makers and their advisors as to why a more open
approach towards intellectual property would be more beneficial
under many circumstances in the contemporary economy. While
universal issues are addressed, the author distinguishes the
European perspective too. The book is written in a clear and
concise style and covers all of the crucial aspects of IP
management. It will find an audience among scholars of economics
and business.
