Here is a secret of the patent industry: most inventors never recover the cost of their patent. Don't be one of them. Find out if you need a patent or not, and only get one if it fits your goals. Going to a patent attorney to know if you need a patent is like going to an insurance salesman to know if you need insurance. What do you think the answer will be? The attorney will at least try to sell you an expensive patent search.Do you like to make up your own mind? If you are an inventor or want to invest in an invention, you probably do. I am a registered patent agent and I wrote this book to help you decide if you should get a patent, or, for an investor, if you should invest in an invention. Instead of relying on a consultation by a patent agent or attorney who will use his free consultation to try and sell you something, you can read this book. It would take many hours to tell someone in person all the information and pieces of advice that are collected in this book. Instead of paying hundreds of dollars to hear someone tell you all this, you can read about patents in a non-pressure and informational context at home and think about the big issues related to them. Then, you will be informed to decide if you want to patent or not. If you still have questions, you will be able to use the free consultation given by many patent agents and attorneys to get answers to them, instead of simply be told generalities and sold a search or a provisional patent application that may not be right for you.What are the major steps of the patent process? This book includes a detailed summary of the whole process that you can read and refer to later.Find out the major mistakes that inventors tend to make. Some can eliminate any chance of getting a valid patent.For investors, find out what is the minimal set of questions you should be asking before investing a single cent in an invention. Answers to these questions can save you a lot of time and money.And of course, the 20000$ question: should you patent your invention or not? Sometimes, patenting your invention is not the best way to proceed. And if you decide to patent it, this book warns you about the major mistakes that inventors and investors make in the patent process.

This book analyses the gendered nature of patent law and the knowledge governance system it supports. The vast majority of patented inventions are attributed to male inventors. While this has resulted in arguments that there are not enough women working in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, this book maintains that the issue lies with the very nature of patent law and how it governs knowledge. The reason why fewer women patent than men is that patent law and the knowledge governance system it supports are gendered. This book deconstructs patent law to reveal the multiple gendered binaries it embodies, and how these in turn reflect gendered understandings of what constitutes science and an invention, and a scientist and an inventor. Revealing the inherent biases of the patent system, as well as its reliance on an idea of the public domain, the book argues that an egalitarian knowledge governance system must go beyond socialised binaries to better govern knowledge creation, dissemination and maintenance. This book will appeal to scholars and policymakers in the field of patent law, as well as those in law and other disciplines with interests in law, gender and technology.
