Designing Brand Identity: A Complete Guide to Creating, Building, and Maintaining Strong Brands43 reviews
Alina Wheeler

Wiley, 2006

Very thorough with great examples
I used this book for a graphic design course that I'm taking and it was very informative as well as thorough. It was interesting to read about all of the brand identities and how logos really affect the way a company is viewed. I like the detail, the graphics and the comparisons for the different logos. This helped me in developing a good design for my project.
  
  











  



  
The Entrepreneur's Guide to Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks, Trade Secrets & Licensing29 reviews
Gilbert Guide

Excellent Coverage of the Subject Matter
This is a wonderful book. For starters, it's well written, nicely organized, and easy to read. Just as important, it's targeted to entrepreneurs and does a great job of focusing on the issues that relate to starting and growing a new business venture -- rather than simply covering the technicalities of patent drafting, for example. Perhaps the most valuable contribution this book can make for ...

Twinkie, Deconstructed: My Journey to Discover How the Ingredients Found in Processed Foods Are Grown, Mined ...28 reviews
Steve Ettlinger

Hudson Street Press, 2007

More subtle and subversive a book than it first seems
Anyone who's ever eaten a Twinkie remembers the experience, even if it's been years. The textured, firm, sweet dough combined with the intense vanilla creme (not cream, mind you) filling is distinctive and, especially when you're a kid, delicious, yet obviously somehow sinful and wrong and unnatural at the same time. Twinkie, Deconstructed is a perfect "sick day in bed" book: a sort of ...

Trademark: Legal Care for Your Business & Product Name7 reviews
Stephen Elias, Richard Stim

NOLO, 2007

Good Introduction for the Non-Professional
This book is an excellent introduction to the concepts of trademarks. It's in its seventh edition, so it's been around long enough to get errors worked out and up to date enough to reflect the latest legal changes. This book is a good introduction to trademark law. It seems to fit into two categories. If you're working for a big company (or a company that wants to grow big) use this for its ...
  
  











  



  
Copyright's Paradox2 reviews
Neil Weinstock Netanel

Oxford University Press, USA, 2008

What's Wrong with Copyright
As the title indicates, this book examines the great paradox of modern copyright law in America. Copyright was meant to encourage and protect creativity, but is now used to restrict that same expression. For the layperson, copyright law may seem to be a guarantee of compensation for an artist's expressive works for a limited time, after which that expression enters the public domain for the ...

Everything I needed...
I needed to write up a web-development contract as an independent contractor. Previously, I had used bits and pieces of other contracts but never quite knew what some of the paragraphs meant. A colleague recommended this book, I bought it and have not regretted it. One of the biggest helps is the author explains the meaning of every paragraph of the contract and makes recommendations in your ...
