Description
Performers' Rights was the first book to deal exclusively with the protection of performers and recordings, whether under the Acts of 1958-72 or under the 1988 Act. This edition concentrates on the law and practice that has developed under the 1988 Act and reflects the changes made by EC legislation, including the rental and lending rights Directive. It also expands its coverage of the laws of other countries, reflecting the fact that practitioners are often called upon to advise on international aspects of performers' and recording rights. * Highlights the weapons available to litigants and the wide-ranging implications for the drafting of performers' contracts * Expanded international coverage
