>I have PERSON and LICENSE. One person may have more than one license. One license may be issued to more than one person. Either the person or the license may be in both circumstances. That is, a person may be the only holder of one license and a shared holder of another license. Similarly, a license may be held by one person who may or may not hold another license, and those licenses may be single or shared as well.

Sounds like :
select * from Person ;
full join License ;
on person.fk_person = license.pk_license
I got "person.fk_person" as foreign key linking to license (fk_person = "L00000" for pk_person = "P00000" and so on).
