Rezensionen

"...well laid out, with goals set out in each chapter." (Management Today, July 2007)

"Poltorak and Lerner have produced a highly readable and
informative introduction to intellectual property licensing,
written with style, grace and occasionally tongue in parenthetical
cheek. It should be required reading for those new to the field as
well as for others needing a 'Licensing 101' course."

--Emmett Murtha, President & CEO, QED Intellectual
Property (USA); Past President of the Licensing Executives Society
and former Director of Licensing for IBM

"Professionals in manufacturing and in supply chain management
have little time or motivation to grapple with legal texts. Yet,
they need precise, complete, easy-to-read material that can educate
them both quickly and well. Alexander Poltorak and Paul Lerner, in
Essentials of Intellectual Property Licensing, understand their
audience's needs, and produced a work that is actually fun to read.
More to the point, it is easy to read, amazingly concise and clear
for a legal text, and encourages the reader to step forth as a
partner with legal counsel to tackle issues head-on."

--Alexis N. Sommers, Ph.D. Professor of Industrial En
gineering at University of New Haven & President of the
Connecticut Association of Purchasing Managers
