Appendices.

"Shanahan's Australian Law of Trade Marks and Passing Off Sixth Edition provides a fully updated analysis of the law of trade marks and passing off in Australia. This work analyses changes in trade mark law in the years since the last edition published, in the context of both domestic and international developments. It also explores developments in the law of passing off and its legislative equivalents. The Sixth Edition maintains the title's reputation for combining a practitioner focus with deeper analysis of the law. Professor Mark Davison and Victorian barrister, Ian Horak, once again provide a fresh and authoritative iteration of the late Dan Shanahan's landmark work." -- Publisher's website.
