Corporate Insider's Guide to U.S. Patent Practice authored by Charles R. Macedo: Given the growing importance of patents to businesses both in the United States and abroad, there is a growing demand for a succinct guidebook to serve as a reference for attorneys and "c-level" executives who have not (and most likely will not) be trained as specialists in the patent field. The Corporate Insider's Guide to U.S. Patent Practice meets this need by providing a basic understanding of patent practice in the United States as it relates to both obtaining and enforcing patents. It also provides an overview of patent licensing and related transactions.
Written by Charles R. Macedo, a practicing attorney at an elite intellectual property firm, The Corporate Insider's Guide to U.S. Patent Practice offers readers a high-level, practice-oriented approach to patents that never loses sight of the business implications at stake. In short, it teaches what every executive should know in terms of how best to spot patent-related issues effecting both short and long-term organizational goals.

"Is this book worth buying? Let's put it this way: Before I had even finished reading it, I had bought a copy and overnighted it to a client. After I finished it, I bought a second copy for another client."
--Herbert R. Schulze
The Colorado Lawyer
"For the first time, corporate intermediary participants in the US patent system have access to a reference text that is dedicated to addressing their specific needs. The Corporate Insider's Guide to U.S. Patent Practice is precisely what it professes to be, and it should be embraced by corporate insiders everywhere."
--Journal of Intellectual Property Law and Practice
