Liber Amicorum | Honoring Herb Hovenkamp

Delighted to see this volume edited by Nicolas Charbit and Sébastien Gachot honoring the remarkable work of Herbert Hovenkamp will be out next week.

The Hon. Bill Baer’s Forward put it well:

“This Concurrences tribute to the exceptional scholarship of “The Dean of Antitrust Law” is well deserved. … We need guidance on how to make a free-market economy work for us all. We need more of my friend and mentor, Herb Hovenkamp.”

The volume includes my chapter distilling Herb’s insights on the interface between antitrust and intellectual property and his thoughts on improving that relationship.

Honored to join my fellow contributors to show our appreciation of our friend and colleague Herb Hovenkamp.
