The Colloquium was held in Amsterdam 6-7 July 1995. This book was published about a year later (a creditable performance) and before this review is written we have the results of the Diplomatic Conference at Geneva in December 1996. But very little has been resolved. Much of the material in the book reviews the history of copyright. The future changes as we write - these reviews appear on the author's website for which he receives no direct recompense - so the link between an author and his reader can be direct but somehow the money must go round so that the world can go round. A notion we culled from the last page in the book.
