Crash course on U.S. patent law

I wish I'd had a book like this when I first started my patent career. We will start with an introduction on patent law. Next, we will talk about the requirements for patentability: novelty and non-obviousness. Next, it will be useful to focus on 101 patentability. Then we will discuss claim drafting and prior art and prosecution history search, followed by the contents of a provisional application and patent application or specification. We will then talk about responses to office actions or amendments. Finally, it might be useful to dive into opinions, followed by the conclusion"--Page v.
