Ask any supply chain pro, and most will tell you that it's hard to get good, clear information about complex legal issues in transportation and logistics.

That need led the Transportation and Logistics Council (TLC) to launch its "Transportation & Logistics—Q&A in Plain English" series of books some years back. The books are based on actual questions submitted to the council's "Q&A" forum and published in the TLC's monthly TransDigest publication. The answers, provided by transportation attorneys George Carl Pezold and Raymond A. Selvaggio, are clear, concise, and to the point.

So when the TLC realized that its popular texts on the subject were about to go out of print, the organization seized the opportunity to combine three volumes onto a single CD and reissue them.

Titled "Transportation & Logistics—Q&A in Plain English—Books 7, 8 & 9," the compilation includes the seventh, eighth, and ninth books in the series (337 pages' worth of printed material). The volumes were originally published between 2009 and 2013.

The series is intended for use as either a reference for experienced logistics professionals or a teaching aid for students and newcomers. To order the CD, click here.
