"Keyword Patent Searching Online - A Workbook" has just been published (July
2002) and makes a compelling case for keywords as the best way to search for
patents on the Internet.  Classification systems are not needed for most
patentability searches.

Four inventions are presented for the reader to search using basic
technologies.  Each search is challenging and requires about four hours.
The reader is encouraged to work alone.  Step-by-step search solutions are
provided that are easy to follow.   The search results show how each patent
is located.  The reader evaluates progress by comparing the patents found
with the search results.  The USPTO and the EPO search engines are featured.
The presentation and layouts are completely original.  This workbook will be
used in presenting professional seminars.  For more information, see

By way of introduction, I have more than twenty years experience in patent
law, and have been admitted to practice before the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office.  I was Associate Patent Counsel with Borg-Warner Automotive, Inc.,
and an attorney with Battelle Memorial Institute and Rockwell International
Corp. (Aerospace Division).  I've been admitted to practice law in Michigan,
California, and Ohio.  I present one-day patent seminars for the Society of
Automotive Engineers entitled "Patents - A Global Perspective" (see
