    Table of Contents (127k)
    Foreword (119k)
    Preface (119k)
    Chapter 1: Introduction (198k)

    This book is the first of its kind to teach scientists and engineers how to go beyond simply getting a patent granted. It covers various aspects, from basic concepts of patent laws, patent preparation to patent post granting, in an easy-to-understand language for inventors. It also introduces the basis of patent licensing and related business aspects, helping inventors create patents that can be better capitalized. Through the author's extensive scientific background and experience, it provides common pitfalls and tips on how an inventor should assist in all phases of patent filing, prosecution and licensing.

     
    Contents:
    • Fundamentals in Patenting
    • Patent Prosecution and Post Granting
    • Business Perspectives and Beyond
     
    Readership: Researchers, scientists, engineers, individual inventors in innovation, entrepreneurship; business management, patent strategy and portfolio management, intellectual property professionals and engineering students in graduate studies.
     
    “Matthew Ma has a deep understanding of the world of patents from the legal, technology, and business perspective. However, the brilliance of his book is the reduction of these complex concepts into easy to understand language. As the title would indicate, it is great for Scientists and Engineers, but also a must read for technology business leaders.”

    “This is an excellent and useful book meant to help both the beginners and experts, written in an easy-to-read style starting from the basics and going into technical depths. The author gives many practical tips based on his extensive experience in patenting and in working in R&D.”
