Praise for CyberRegs by Bill Zoellick

"Since an Internet presence that allows for interaction is nearly mandatory, this could be the most important book you read this year. This is a book that should be required reading of anyone in business who makes decisions concerning intellectual property."

Charles Ashbacher, book reviews editor for Journal of Recreational Mathematics and co-editor in charge of articles; he is also the president and CEO of Charles Ashbacher Technologies

"You don’t have to be a lawyer to appreciate CyberRegs. Anyone who wants to have a business presence on the Net should read this book so as not to get involved in a legal tussle. While John Grisham may own the legal fiction market, CyberRegs is as close to a non-fiction legal thriller as you can get."

Ben Rothke, New York-city based Senior Security Analyst with Camelot Information Technologies and a member of ASIS

"I was hesitant to read CyberRegs, given its "Business Guide" subtitle. Noticing the book mentioned controversial topics like the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA), Napster, and the DeCSS case, I decided I'd give CyberRegs a try. That proved to be a wise decision, and I strongly recommend this book to anyone worried about the future of the Internet."

Richard Bejtlich, senior engineer, network security at a Fortune 500 firm

"I came away with a deeper understanding of intellectual property laws, an appreciation of the challenges faced by lawmakers and courts, and the ability to see polarizing issues from many points of view. I also came away with some keen insights into how the web has changed things, and the excitement of the opportunities that [current] intellectual property laws and the web combine to open opportunities."

Mike Tarrani, computer consultant

"Bill has provided a masterful overview of a complex area of the law, explained the legal precedents that have shaped part of patent and copyright law over the past years, and has wrapped it all in the thoughtful backdrop of the immature and rapidly changing e-business landscape."

Randolph Kahn, ESQ

"The book is the best one-volume survey for a generalist about the changing law of the Internet circa 2001."

Paul M. Schwartz, Professor of Law, Brooklyn Law School

"Mr. Zoellick pulls from his own experience to provide an interesting look at some of the most important issues confronting business in the future-the nature of the digital economy and the forces that will shape its future growth and development. This is a debate that every business in America needs to join."

Jon Garon, Professor of Law, Franklin Pierce Law School

"Zoellick gets it. The author realizes that business is built on knowledge and trust, and he doesn't pander to his audience in getting that point across. This book will give non-techies background, and then some, to address emerging technology issues in business."

Barry Bermage, Legal Project Manager Technology Policy Ohio Supercomputer Center

"The book cuts a clear, original, and insightful path through a set of timely controversial legal and business issues. It helps business people build successful strategies for today's Internet business climate, and provides useful and practical perspective for all citizens concerned about the future direction of Internet policy."

Adina Levin, Senior Director, Corporate Strategy, Vignette Corporation

"In this well-written, engaging book, Zoellick examines the technical, business, and political angles of complex issues facing the Web today. The issues raised in CyberRegs are ones that every organization doing business on the Web will face. Zoellick offers business managers fresh insight into coping with these challenges and makes a cogent argument for participating in the political debate over how we will regulate the Net economy."

Mark Walter, Senior Editor, The Seybold Report

"Exceedingly well analyzed and thoughtfully presented. Bill Zoellick has skillfully set out the leading e-Business issues and pulls no punches in challenging the conventional wisdom underlying current law and policy. A great jumping off point for understanding-or changing-today's crucial business trends."
