Reviews

"Though written primarily for an American audience, this book is likely to be useful to students, practitioners and researchers in other jurisdictions as well. It covers a wide range of issues such as defamation, privacy, obscenity, copyright and contempt of court which are generic to all media as well as matters specific to the electronic media, such as TV regulation, "must-carry" rules, radio traffic jams, etc."
*Journal of the Commongwealth Lawyer′s Association*
