Reviewer Quotations:
“This textbook is one of the best in the business. I have used it consistently for close to 9 years. Its strength is that it follows a topical rather than an institutional or media industry approach to the study of communication law and policy. This approach is especially useful because many legal issues cut across several media.” – Lyombe Eko, University of Iowa
“I appreciate that this book is trying to buck the standard trend of topic areas by moving content into more theoretical or ‘principle’ chapters.” – Genelle Belmas, California State - Fullerton
