Communication and the Law is designed for students planning careers in mass communication. Avoiding legalese, it is written in clear language and terminology understandable to both students and communication professionals alike. All chapters are written by some of the field’s leading authorities, assuring unmatched expertise, and are updated annually to assure the most current explanation of the law.

A distinguishing feature of Communication and the Law is that a new, updated edition is published each year. Thus, you can be assured that you will have the most timely information in one place, rather than in a textbook and a separately published supplement.

Each year, the prices of other books continue to go up, but the suggested retail price of Communication and the Law is lower than for any other textbook in the field — in fact, less than for used copies of most other books.

Communication and the Law is in its 26th year of publication, and it has been used at 132 schools. New schools have been adopting it with each new edition. We believe its popularity confirms its superior quality.
