In the United States, the normal rule is that each party to a lawsuit pays its own attorneys' fees. However, some statutes, including the Copyright Act, give the trial judge the authority to make the loser pay some or all of the winner's attorneys' fees when the loser, in one way or another, has acted badly. The question then becomes what constitutes sufficiently bad behavior so as to justify an award of attorneys' fees. That was the question before the court in the recent case of Asset Marketing Systems (AMS) v. Gagnon.

This book is written by an internationally respected scientist with extensive experience in colloids and biomolecules. Most of the topics in the text emphasize the theory and literature findings that may require knowledge in chemistry and biology at senior undergraduate level. It is recommended for early-level graduate courses in biomaterials or as a reference text.

The book is a comprehensive account of the recent research in CI. It covers applications of CI in four important areas: cardiology, EMG, electroencephalography, and gait and movement pattern. This is an excellent reference for researchers, practicing engineers, academics, and graduate students who are looking for applications of CI in health care.

This book is divided into two subject areas. The first seven chapters discuss materials science, whereas the last seven chapters discuss biological response. The characterization and regulatory issues are included throughout the book as appropriate. This is an excellent book for students in the biomedical engineering curriculum and also an excellent reference for practicing engineers, providing explanation of many intricacies of biomaterials and sufficient background material to make the subject understandable.

The intent of this book is to provide an in-depth treatment of design for six sigma (DFSS) and related technologies to assist in safe, efficacious medical device design. The book consists of 20 chapters, each beginning with an overview of the material to be covered and ending with the summary statements relevant to that material. Appendixes cover terminology, references, and necessary statistical tables. This book, written by two authors with a large amount of DFSS experience, is overly intense for most undergraduates. This book is therefore recommended for early-level graduate courses in medical device design or as a reference text.

Another year has gone by and while you are all enjoying summertime, keep in mind that every year, near the end of the summer, it's time for the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Conference (EMBC). This year, the 31st Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS) will be held 2-6 September 2009 at the Hilton Hotel in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota, the world capital of the medical device industry. The meeting will bring together more than 2,000 of the world's experts in biomedical engineering, including academics, researchers, industrialists, clinicians, and trainees for five days of science, networking, and social events.
