Copyright laws worldwide were created for a publishing world
where books were tangible, printed in a limited number and sold within
territory based markets. Technological changes are giving place to a new book
market where books are intangible, exist in unlimited number of copies and travel worldwide in an
increasingly global market. In this emerging global book market made possible
by the conjunction of the Internet, e-book technologies, DRM and print on
demand devices, the three important legal concepts traditionally used in
copyright laws have become obsolete: territory, property and the Aristotelian
idea of justice. These three concepts were well suited to the tangible book market
but are no longer for the virtual book market where persons matter more than
objects. This book invites the reader to explore the specific functioning of
the virtual economy. It proposes guidelines to modernize copyright law so that
it can foster an adequate use of new communication technologies. For the first
time in History, the humankind has acquired a technology that allows to create
a world of information affluence and freedom of speech or its opposite.

This book explains why the
option for abundance and freedom must prevail, how the law can support this
movement and what would be, to the contrary, the disastrous consequences of the
other option. This book goes beyond a simple reflection on the book market and
considers the choice of society, even of civilization implied by the use, right
or wrong, of the new communication technologies.
