James Boyle on the Public Domain

James Boyle has published a new book. And it’s on the public domain. This is a must read affair. And if you dont believe me then you can download it first to check it out!

If you like it, please consider buying a copy.

Why am I allowing you to copy the book for free?  And why is Yale University Press letting me?   To understand why I am doing it, watch this video by Jesse Dylan.  And if you want to  understand why it  makes economic sense to my publisher, read this short article.

Download the book as a pdf. (1.5Mb)
