This book examines three categories of disputes between authors and their fans: the fans' use of copyrighted characters, online publication of fiction resembling copyright work, and in the case of J.K. Rowling and a fansite webmaster, a dispute over the compiling of a reference work detailing an author's fictional universe. Discussing fan works from a number of countries including the United States, Brazil, China, India and Russia, Fan Fiction and Copyright advances the understanding of fan fiction as transformative use and points the way toward a safe harbour for fan fiction.
