"So far it is interesting. I didn't realize this was new information; that private property adds expense to collaboration, sometimes to the point that projects are abandoned. We have have popular cultural references where the private owner who holds out against big company buy-outs becomes a hero! It is intesting, tho, to learn of some of the contemporary implications in patents and other intellectual property."

"Interesting ideas, but somewhat repetitive without a good take home or strategy for overcoming the issues presented. This would have made a better book if it was edited down to about 1/2 its current length."

"This book was ho-hum. The examples were interesting and some of them were thought provoking, but too much "me me me" from Heller ("aren't I a clever boy")."

""Heller summarizes his research into "anti-commons"--the problem that arises when resources that are most efficient in some minimum quantity (like land) are divided into parcels that make them economically useless. The trouble with an anti-commons is that the process is asymmetrical: it is very easy to fragment land (or intellectual property) but very difficult to re-assemble it. The result is the "gridlock" in the title" This was an interesting book. It deserves a second read, because I skimmed much of the ending since it needed to be returned to the library. The complicated issue of individual patents holding up so much research and development of products was an eye opener and a sad setback for growth in medicine, technology, etc."
