#79.

With Prof. Neil Netanel (Pete Kameron Endowed Chair in Law at UCLA) discussing the history of Jewish Copyright Law.

We focused on Prof. Netanel's book, "From Maimonides to Microsoft: The Jewish Law of Copyright Since the Birth of Print" and discussed how it came to be, Book priviliges, Maharam Padua, the Rama, and the famous disagreement between Giustiniani & Bragadini, other various rabbinic "reprinting bans", and more.
