“I chose Communication Law: Practical Applications in the Digital Age because the textbook is accessible for my undergraduate law students. My students like the fact that the authors are able to clearly communicate often dense legalese, while still maintaining the integrity of the material.”
David J. Weinert, University of Miami, USA
“When I was assigned to teach Media Law, I approached it with great trepidation – then I found Communication Law and realized I knew a lot more about media law than I thought I did. Communication Law and my teaching reflected how the law is used in media instead of the other texts I reviewed which were like books for lawyers rather than journalists.”
Cliff Brockman, Wartburg College, USA
