Produktbeschreibung
Engineers encounter various forms of contracts at nearly every turn in their careers. This book enhances their ability to communicate contractual issues to lawyers and then better understand the consequent legal advice they receive. The text introduces the related subjects of intellectual property (including patents, copyright, trademarks, and trade secrets) and standards (including conformity assessment and accreditation). The author also addresses the role of ethics-at both the micro and macro levels-which recently has been emphasized in response to the collapse of Boston's Big Dig, the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and the coal mine accident that resulted in the many deaths.

Autorenporträt
Robert D. (Bob) Hunter, PE, lives in Austin, Texas. For more than 30 years, he has been involved in standards, conformity assessment, and accreditation as a company employee and as a consultant to several technical and computer companies. A recipient of the IEEE Centennial Medal, Bob served on standards committees at both national and international levels. He has written and lectured on standards-related subjects and in his major fields of interest, including regulatory compliance, intellectual property, electromagnetic compatibility, product safety, and other technical subjects. Hunter served on the Industrial Advisory Committee (IAC) of Underwriters Laboratories (UL), which developed one of the first national standards (UL 1950) based on an International Standard (IEC 60950). Bob obtained B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from Drexel University in 1959 and 1962, respectively, and taught electrical engineering subjects at Drexel Evening College. He served as a quality control engineer and as a patent engineering specialist before becoming involved in regulatory compliance engineering.
