Culture vs. Copyright

the long version

Culture vs. Copyright's title speaks for itself: it is an inquiry on philosophy of culture vs. concepts pertaining to "Intellectual Property." Large part of the book had been composed as dialogues among five first graders. They explore many different ideas regarding the main subject, including essential differences between realms of culture and civilization, economy of arts and ideas, psychology of creativity, some legal issues, etc. "...It is an interesting, accessible blend of Walter Benjamin’s The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction, Jostein Gaarder’s Sophie’s World, Lawrence Lessig, and gift economy theory." - Says Shaindel Beers, a writer.
