What is ownership? What can we call our own? It would seem that we learn the word «mine» in our childhood. But everything is much more complicated. Ownership is not a steel concept, nor clearly defined: even in different states of the USA the concept of what you own is discrete.

The authors of this book give interesting thoughts on the understanding of ownership, revealing how symbolic ownership can sometimes change the real one, and some companies make money by doing ownership not at all about&’ect phenomena, for example, the absence of the need to stand at the wormhole.

What is good this book
