Interesting Pharmaceutical Patent Decision from India

Below is a link to an article entitled "Putting lives before Patents".

http://www.techdirt.com/articles/201...e-copied.shtml

Whilst not directly about Copyright and EBooks it is informative and deals with a number of the themes discussed in various copyright threads on this forum. To give just one example, India sought to establish a thriving pharmaceutical industry by refusing to recognise pharmaceutical patents, much as the United States publishing industry is built on the failure of the United States to respect foreign publishers copyrights.

It makes most interesting reading.
