This book centres on the discussion of intellectual property law in Singapore. The chapters are categorised into six Parts: Introduction; Copyright; Patents, Innovation and Inventions; Designs; Trade Marks, Passing Off and Unfair Competition; and Confidential Information. Each Part is written with the objective that it may be studied on its own. However, as there may be overlapping rights between the categories, cross-referencing between Parts and chapters is necessary. Singapore’s intellectual property law, like that in many other countries, is intricately bound to a larger set of international legal norms and standards. Therefore, the study of this branch of the law is not complete without consideration of the historical perspectives as well as the influences of international treaties and conventions in the different categories of intellectual property.

The guiding philosophy of the youth justice system in Singapore is that youth offending is best contained and prevented through rehabilitation of the youth offender. This involves re-integrating the youth offender with his family and the community, and necessitates the youth offender taking responsibility both for his wrongdoing as well as his future.

This book sets out and analyses the relevant laws and procedures, case-law and court processes in the youth justice arena. In addition to the legal materials, the book explores the roles played by various parties in the rehabilitation of the youth offender, including probation officers, social workers, institutional staff, family members, and school personnel. It sets out key youth justice programmes, practices, relevant research, and case studies.

Containing a wealth of useful information, insights and analysis, this book is an excellent guide and resource for anyone working with youths, from lawyers to youth workers, educators to parents, and more generally, anyone who is interested in learning more about the youth justice system in Singapore.
