I bough this book less than a week ago and it was so informative about the entire process of searching, obtaining, and even coming up with new ideas that I simply could not put it down. I highly recommend this book not only as a future reference to patent seekers but to anyone interested in the process or learning where to find what with respect to patents, copyrights, trademarks and much more. I have submitted a few patent applications and the knowledge in this book would have been extremely helpful in each of those submissions.
Some great tips include sites to search for existing patents, case studies and many examples. The appendix is filled with a comprehensive list of search sites, patent offices, and other resources to get you going quickly.
