The Law of Confidentiality by Paul Stanley Kc
This book goes behind the mass of cases on breach of confidence to tease out the fundamental principles underlying the modern law.
..this is an extremely engaging account of the law of confidentiality...it will be a useful resource to practitioners seeking to find their way through the labyrinth of authorities and to identify clear and workable principles on which to proceed...It is highly recommended, and a final word of congratulation must also go to the publishers, Hart Publishing, on the fine production qualities of the volume they have produced. Sam Ricketson European Intellectual Property Review Vol 31, Issue 11, 2009 ...provides a refreshing analysis into the development of this law...a nifty guide, easy to handle, 162 pages excluding the index...This book is not only reader-friendly, but a welcome addition by emphasising the relevant cases, principles and controversies for noting and discussing by the busy academic or practitioner...an invaluable guide in understanding the complexities of this important emerging area of law. Rebecca Wong Web Journal of Current Legal Issues December 2008 Paul Stanley has marshalled the main body of primarily English case law on confidential information into an extremely clear well-written, engaging, and succinct exposition...Stanley's book is certainly a valuable contribution to the field. It is extremely helpful in the setting out of the contours of the law confidence, alerting the reader to the more controversial issues, and providing a conceptual framework through which to view a complex area of the law. It achieves what it sets out to do and would recommend it to practitioners and academics alike. Tanya Aplin intellectual Property Law and Practice Year 2009 Each proposition is accompanied by a succinct discussion of the law relating to it, which is well-footnoted and includes both cases and relevant academic article literature...The author highlights areas of contention and differences of opinion and is quite prepared to challenge the validity of certain precedents or other authors' opinions...I found this an informative and readable work which, in my view, achieves its objective of 'restating' this flexible and expanding equitable action. Howard Johnson Communications Law Vol 14, No 2, 2009 Paul Stanley's book convincingly demonstrates that the age of restatement has not passed, and that there is a place in the literature on confidential information for a propositional text. The book is an important addition to the literature on confidential information. It is strongly recommended to all lawyers who grapple with this fascinating area of legal inquiry.
