Rezensionen

"...well laid out, with goals set out in each chapter." (Management Today, July 2007) "Poltorak and Lerner have produced a highly readable andinformative introduction to intellectual property licensing,written with style, grace and occasionally tongue in parentheticalcheek. It should be required reading for those new to the field aswell as for others needing a 'Licensing 101' course."
--Emmett Murtha, President & CEO, QED IntellectualProperty (USA); Past President of the Licensing Executives Societyand former Director of Licensing for IBM

"Professionals in manufacturing and in supply chain managementhave little time or motivation to grapple with legal texts. Yet,they need precise, complete, easy-to-read material that can educatethem both quickly and well. Alexander Poltorak and Paul Lerner, inEssentials of Intellectual Property Licensing, understand theiraudience's needs, and produced a work that is actually fun to read.More to the point, it is easy to read, amazingly concise and clearfor a legal text, and encourages the reader to step forth as apartner with legal counsel to tackle issues head-on."
--Alexis N. Sommers, Ph.D. Professor of Industrial Engineering at University of New Haven & President of theConnecticut Association of Purchasing Managers
