Description: What is intellectual property and what isn't? What is the "public domain" and why does it exist? How is the Internet threatening to change so many ideas about "content" -- and the business models that depend on them -- and how are businesses threatening to change the Internet as it currently exists in response to that threat?

Over the course of this brilliant and ceaselessly provocative book, Lawrence Lessig explains the legal, social, and economic forces at play in creating the arena in which increasing numbers of us will spend our lives at work and play. He ranges over the past, present, and future of intellectual property, and argues forcefully that all private property, material and intellectual, has value only in balance with the public space around it. He shows why not bringing the idea of a public commons into the age of the Internet will lead to the destruction of the Net's enormous potential to foster creativity and freedom. He lays out with brilliant clarity several potential blueprints for the digital future and the consequences of each. A book of tremendous moment, Innovation and Its Enemies will rightfully generate a healthy and heated debate.
