Privacy, property and personality

de Huw Beverley-Smith, Ansgar Ohly, Agnes Lucas-Schloetter

"This book provides a detailed comparative analysis of the laws relating to commercial exploitation of personality in France, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States. It examines the difficulties in reconciling privacy and personality with intellectual property rights in an individual's identity and in balancing such rights with the competing interests of freedom of expression and freedom of competition"--Dust jacket.
