Abstract
Law is an integral social process which is resorted to for
organizing the society in an orderly manner, and the legal
system and statute are very significant part of the larger
social system. Consequently, law is generally a very
dynamic subject and the practice of law ought to change to
reflect the changing nature of our society. That is because
law is made for man and not man for law. It has however
been observed that while our society is changing, our
Nigerian Patent Act remains unchanged; thereby denying
this aspect of its proper law functions.
