Summary: Thorough Domain Legal Review for Legal Types
Comment: This is the book to buy if you're looking for a thorough legal guide to domain names. Perhaps too thorough and legal-technical for the non-legal type; you won't find much technical or marketing help in this book.Written by three attorneys in the United Kingdom, this 287-page book touches on all legal aspects of domain name registrations, trademark issues, sales and transactions and dispute resolution. Although provided with a heavily European flavor, the book will surely prove useful to anyone wanting to brush up on domain name legalese and case law throughout the world.
Applicable to any domain holder, the book does suggest registering your domain name as a trademark in as many classifications as possible in as many countries as possible, to avoid any future headaches. In addition, I was made aware of the "Madrid Agreement" whereby trademark applications are shared across 40 countries, simplifying the application process for any domain holder.
The book does attempt to address domain appraisal methods and secondary markets, however lackluster. The authors would have been better sticking to their business of legalese, as that is where this book shines.
