online. But sometimes you just want to reach for a book and get an answer in
seconds," says editor Holly Jones. "We are fortunate to be associated with the
Employers Counsel Network, a national affiliation of law firms representing
management. Network attorneys wrote this book based on the questions and
problems they help."
