Review
"When I first skimmed this book, I thought it was nothing more than a collage of independent articles-but was I ever wrong! Bob Goldscheider has masterfully pulled together an excellent up-to-date position on licensing best practices in several jurisdictions. The flow is excellent. The information I need is well categorized and it's already proving to be an excellent resource. Bob's choice of authors is exceptional. I personally know all of them and take great stock in their advice that they so willingly provide."

"This book does serious double duty. It is a helpful primer for business executives and people breaking into the licensing field because it provides broad, often in-depth coverage. It also serves a helpful purpose for seasoned licensing executives and lawyers: first, it endorses many of the things that we do and think and hence serves as a reality check; second, at a deeper level, it proposes techniques and analyses, some of which are necessarily new to each of us because the thing about licensing is that you learn every time out. This book provides learning for even the most seasoned."
