Why we need to fix our copyright laws -- Replacing a faith-based approach to copyright with an evidence-based approach -- What are copyright laws supposed to do? -- The public interest -- Law is not the solution to business problems -- Does deterrence work? -- Abandoning exclusivity and getting paid instead -- The length of copyright is damaging our cultural heritage -- Reimposing some formalities -- The moral panic over fair use -- "The answer to the machine is in the machine" is a really bad metaphor -- Effective global copyright laws.
The author argues that current copyright law is not effective in the digital age and must be revised to encourage creation of new works, increase learning, and enhance access to information.
