The title of the essay succinctly explains the author's viewpoint:
50 Loyola L. Rev. 623 - 673 (Fall 2004) by Professor Amy B. Cohen.
Professor Cohen, who had taught for 20 years at Western New England College School of Law, took a sabbatical to see what practice was like after that 20 years. She writes of the value to her as a law professor of her one-semester experience back practicing law.
The text of the essay is 22 pages long. The remaining 29 pages consists of two appendices: a survey form for intellectual property practitioners that she conducted during her sabbatical and her summaries and graphs from the data.
