| Summary |
There is a general agreement that piracy, counterfeiting, and passing off are unfair practices. However, there is often surreptitious - or even open - sympathy for, say, those who purchase counterfeit designer fashions or the latest technical gadgets. The pirate is even sometimes represented as a daring evil hero. In this book, the author, Director General of Nigeria's National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, presents a unique study of a global phenomenon in which lawbreaking and profiteering prevail at the cost of human health and life - and of the ways in which this can be fought by appropriate legislation, regulation, and enforcement |
