A guide to all aspects of selling rights and co-publications, this third edition of the text has been revised and updated to respond to the continuing changes which have occurred in the published industry and in United Kingdom and European law. Key areas discussed are: the effects of the extension of copyright duration within the European Union; the implication of restoration of copyright in the United States; the effect of the collapse of the Net Book Agreement on book club and other UK licensing deals; reprint and translation rights in transitional markets such as Central and Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union and Chinese language markets; the implications of publishing on the Internet and new developments in multimedia; and reprographics and the copying of material. Step-by-step explanations of the various rights which can be granted are given, and advice on how to negotiate the best possible deal.
