- . .. ON PATENT CAW "Patent Law," by Prof. John Bark- er Waite, of the Law school, has just come from the Princeton university press and is on sale to the public. The book contains 316 pages. Asked for his opinion of the book, Dean Henry M. Bates, of the Law school, said: "Though I am not an expert in the field of patent law, I do not hesitate to say that I believe Professor Waite has made a critical" and origina1 contribution of real value "He has not hesitated to express his own opinion upon the principles of his subject and the decisions of the courts; his treatment is thorough, thoughtful and philosophical, rather than dogmatic or 'exhaustive,' in the sense of citing a mass of cumulative cases. The author has covered his subject remarkably well." The book covers the substantive law of patents, their nature, validity, and effect. It also treats with the characteristics of the law of patents relating to their value as property. "I hope and believe that the publi- cation of this book by one of our own faculty, will stimulate a wider study of its subject matter in this school," said Dean Bates in giving his own attitude toward the book.
