Description

Paul Goldstein’s entire book International Copyright has been screen-captured from Google Books on a 21.5-inch iMac. Even the cover design has been taken from the Google Books preview. When signs eventually substitute the real itself, they are no longer simply a case of imitation, reduplication, or parody.

Copied Right is not a reproduction of a copyrighted book, but it exists as an original document. The current limitations of the DIY screen-capture book publishing enterprise are revealed by the limit Google Books places on the previewing of particular pages. Over 500 pages featured in Goldstein’s book is not shown in this book.
