Creative Commons and the public domain - James Boyle

As my tweet [see the right hand column] notes, I am in the middle of reading The Public Domain, Enclosing the Commons of the Mind , by James Boyle. The book is available from Amazon - but the whole thing is also available as a free download, here. Boyle's his publisher are agreed giving away the pdf will increase sales, not decrease them. No less that Larry Lessig has offered a review on Amazon.

The site is definitely worth a visit - as is this video on the Creative Commons.
