On average, pregnancies lasted 38 weeks from the day of conception to the day the baby was born, or about 40 to 41 weeks from the day of the women's last menstrual period. (The latter measure is more commonly used to determine a woman's due date.).
The act of copying or adapting someone elseâs work is a restricted act. Any adaptation will be legally regarded as a derived work; so if you simply adapt the work of others, it will still be their work, and they have every right to object you if publish such a work when they have not given you permission to do so.
If you are the sole owner of the copyright to a work, you are the only one who may lawfully do these things or sell/license the rights to someone else to do these things. Conversely, doing one or more of these things without the copyright ownerâs permission is called copyright infringement. One defense against copyright infringement is fair use. Fair use allows you to use someoneâs copyrighted work without permission. However, invoking fair use is not a straightforward matter.
