"The international battle against Internet pirates has been heating up as ebook publishing gains an ever-larger market share. With this threat to their health and even survival, publishers and authors must take action. Drawing from a large number of interviews - from writers, self-publishers, mainstream publishers, researchers, students, admitted pirates, free speech advocates, attorneys, and local and international law enforcement officials - Internet Book Piracy speaks to such issues as: why pirates have acted and how they feel about it; the conflict over constitutional rights and piracy; the current laws surrounding Internet piracy; examples of cases taken against some pirates; alternatives to piracy; personal experiences of being ripped off. If you are a writer or publisher, your work is vulnerable to piracy and theft. Author Gini Graham Scott prepares readers to arm themselves against these modern perils by learning about copyright, infringement, and how to prevent, combat, and end book piracy"--Unedited summary from book cover.
