 The English translation of "Fundamentals" had been in the public domain in the United States since its initial publication in 1954, as U.S. copyright law did not provide automatic copyright protection to works initially published in foreign countries (the English translation of "Fundamentals" was originally published in Ireland).All foreign authored works had copyright restored on January 1, 1996 under the Uruguay Round Agreements Act.TAN continued to publish the same edition legitimately until 2011 as a reliance party.
