Executives know that, but do they also know how easily they can be stolen? Marketing expert Michael Budden thinks not. The departure of unhappy employees, sabotage by current employees, or simply the carelessness of managers unmindful of the risks or unaware of the protection available to them can be hazardous to the security of essential corporate information. Now, however, there is the Uniform Trade Secrets Act. Prevalent in most states with enactment in others almost certain, the Act offers the protection executives need providing they have taken reasonable steps on their own before seeking redress under its provisions. In this readable text, Budden explains the law, how it works, and what executives must do to avail themselves of it. He includes revealing case studies for further guidance and to aid executives in their corporate strategic planning. An essential resource for people with management responsibilities in almost all organizations, and a useful quick refresher for their legal advisers. Losses to organizations through trade secret misappropriations cost billions of dollars annually. No industry is immune. Trade secrets take many forms; recipes, formulas, customer lists, market research results, proprietary processes, and product development secrets are a few examples. Under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, however, companies that have created plans and procedures to guard against such losses before they occur can now seek injunctive relief and collect monetary awards for damages. Dr. Budden introduces readers to the Act and the jurisdictions that have adopted it, and then explains what executives must do to create the necessary precondition of establishing a climate of confidentiality, including the use of non-compete covenants, and nondisclosure and noncompetition contracts. He goes on to lay out the sort of information that must be protected and how to appraise its value and the nature of its secrecy. Following up with advice on developing a plan of action to protect trade secrets, he concludes with a thoughtful discussion of the legal avenues and alternatives that executives can take and an outline of all the trade secrets protections the Act makes available. http://books.google.com/books?id=IeArmjaozd4C&printsec=copyright#PPP11,M1Intellectual property law for engineers and scientists An excellent text for clients to read before meeting with attorneys so they'll understand the fundamentals of patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, mask work, and unfair competition laws.

Bad Samaritans: The Myth of Free Trade and the Secret History of Capitalism by Ha-Joon ChangBloomsbury Press“Lucid, deeply informed, and enlivened with striking illustrations, this penetrating study could be entitled ‘Economics in the Real World.’ Chang reveals the yawning gap between standard doctrines concerning economic development and what really has taken place from the origins of the industrial revolution until today. His incisive analysis shows how, and why, prescriptions based on reigning doctrines have caused severe harm, particularly to the most vulnerable and defenseless, and are likely to continue to do so.”—Noam Chomsky Using irreverent wit, an engagingly personal style, and a battery of examples, Chang blasts holes in the “World I s Flat” orthodoxy of T homas Friedman and other liberal economists who argue that only unfettered capitalism and wide-open international trade can lift struggling nations out of poverty. On the contrary, Chang shows, today’s economic superpowers—from the U .S. to Britain to his native Korea—all attained prosperity by shameless protectionism and government intervention in industry. We have conveniently forgotten this fact, telling ourselves a fairy tale about the magic of free trade and—via our proxies such as the World Bank, I nternational Monetary Fund, and World T rade Organization—ramming policies that suit ourselves down the throat of the developing world. 250 Tips, Techniques, and Trade Secrets for Potters: The Indispensable Compendium of Essential Knowledge and Troubleshooting Tips by Jacqui AtkinBarron's Educational SeriesBoth amateur and professional potters constantly seek time-saving tips, trade secrets, and new technical knowledge--which makes this handsomely illustrated book exactly what they're looking for!
