University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law Professor Jorge Contreras has published a new book. The Cambridge Handbook of Technical Standardization Law: Competition, Antitrust and Patents is newly released by Cambridge University Press.

The text is the first comprehensive global treatment of a rapidly growing field that lies at the intersection of patent and antitrust/competition law. Contreras has assembled legal and economics experts to offer a definitive assessment of the law, regulation and practice of standards development organizations, standards litigation and standards-essential patents. Key jurisdictions including the United States, the European Union, China, Japan, Korea and India are covered in the book.
