Book excerpt: Patent Application Drafting (2022 Edition), by Morgan D. Rosenberg: The proper drafting of a patent application takes into account technical breadth, legal strategy, conformance with a vast number of rules and regulations codified in U.S. statutory law, guidelines issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and over a hundred years of constantly evolving case law. Present texts on the drafting of U.S. patent applications generally fall into two categories: First are the weighty legal treatises that focus on theory and case law to the detriment of practical information; second are the patent it yourself books, which are very basic and limited in scope, and thus not of much use to a practicing patent attorney or patent agent.Patent Application Drafting actually teaches the drafting of patent applications from a practical perspective. Intended as an introductory text, it covers the entire patent application and includes many helpful examples illustrating the process from start to finish. The 2022 Edition further explains the procedures involved with U.S. patent application drafting, including the most recent case law and Patent Office guideline considerations. It is an ideal reference guide for novice patent attorneys and patent agents, as well as independent inventors, lawyers, and patent examiners.FeaturesTeaches the drafting of patent applications from a practical perspectiveCovers the entire patent application and includes many informative, wide-ranging, real-world examples illustrating the process from start to finishBoth a textbook and a reference book providing very general and very specific information respectivelyProvides numerous appendices with additional examples, checklists, and further specific informationContains a helpful and thorough glossary of patent-specific terms defined in language anyone can understand
