Abstract

This is a thorough, coherent analysis for all professionals seeking a comprehensive study. It examines the action of breach of confidence and its application to the protection of commercial and non-personal secrets, and the effectiveness of such protection. The in-depth sections on the employer/employee relationship in the context of commercial secrets will prove invaluable to labour law practitioners. The section on copyright including coverage of cases will be particularly useful to entertainment and media law specialists. The first work dealing specifically with the Irish jurisdiction. Helpful summaries to quickly read up on the relevant legal point. Well-researched and well-written, providing a useful reference tool for practitioners and non-specialists alike.
