The book which will be released, Selective Reading of Chinese Patent Cases, provides an overview of the Chinese patent system, and selects twenty patent cases which are heard by the Higher People's Courts and the Intermediate People's Courts of various provinces and cities after China's accession to the World Trade Organization. With senior intellectual property judges' commenting on these cases, a detailed explanation of the Chinese Patent Law is given.
"Selective Reading of Chinese Patent Cases is a representative collection compiled by China's first generation of experienced Intellectual Property Rights judges from a large number of complicated patent cases they heard, including the earliest foreign-related ones. It aims to help legal professionals understand China's intellectual property system and to introduce its judicial practices to the international community," Yu Dianli said.
At the Beijing International Book Fair in August 2010, Wolters Kluwer already established a strategic partnership with the well-known Commercial Press, and signed a copyright trade framework agreement which is a first step in setting up the introduction and export of legal books.

The Commercial Press has co-published nine books with Wolters Kluwer including"Fundamentals of United States Intellectual Property Law: Copyright, Patent Trademark". After the 2011 English version of "New Challenges of Chinese Copyright Law: ISP Liability, Sports Telecasts and Google Library Project", we are now releasing Selective Reading of Chinese Patent Cases.

Wolters Kluwer will be responsible for the global release of its English version.
