"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
