IP Law - starting work

I have signed up for this distance education course from the National Law
School of India for a Diploma on IP Law. As I continue to educate myself, I
intend to add my thoughts and notes on this subject to this blog.
Note to Richard Stallman: You were correct in stating that no term called
IPR existed except for some PR savvy lawyers started bandying it around. But
that is not the case any longer - IPR is now a legal term and therefore a
mental truth!
