<i>’Law and economics has become a dominant way of thinking about trade mark law in the United States. In this book, Andrew Griffiths applies the methodology of law and economics to European trade mark law in a comprehensive and thoughtful fashion, giving us new insights into the nature of European trade mark legislation and the case law that has developed under it.’</i><br /> - Graeme B. Dinwoodie, University of Oxford, UK<p></p>
<i>’Griffiths provides a comprehensive, readable, and much-needed account of the European approach to trademarks, with an emphasis on the role of economic theory in informing and shaping the law. The book takes a balanced and practical approach that recognizes both the benefits of trademark protection and the need for third parties to use trademarks in information-facilitating ways. It is a welcome contribution to the literature, and will provide a valuable resource to anyone looking for a window into European trademark law.’</i>
