James Pooley is the world's foremost expert on trade secrets, as a prominent Silicon Valley lawyer and former Deputy Director General of the United Nations' World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). The first edition of his book, Secrets: Managing Information Assets in the Age of Cyberespionage, was popular among business, legal, and technology leaders as a useful guide about the increasing difficulty of keeping corporate information private in a hyperconnected world. The highly-anticipated second edition includes important updates regarding CoVID-19 and the passage of the Defend Trade Secrets Act, and so it was essential for the book to get a complete redesign.
