What They're Saying

Critics Review

This is an excellent and thoughtful coverage of the topic by a leading expert. Wonderful coverage of the main and topical issues, and very useful as a text, or for use in extended assessments and dissertations at all levels. – Steve Foster * Coventry University *

The book is well-written, thought-provoking and comprehensive. It gives a useful overview of the key elements that need to be considered in the increasingly complex world of media law.
As an active media law practitioner for national print and online publications I find it particularly helpful.

– Robin Callender Smith * Queen Mary, University of London *
