there are no case studies at all. It's just a workbook full of near blank pages to be used to writing out the definitions of words. Good grief, all I needed was blank paper and I paid for this?

(Hide Review...)  Better than nothing, but just slightly

This book is required reading for a class I'm taking. The professor mentioned on the first day of class that is it a bit outdated and that there are few books on this new subject, so we were stuck. In reading it I understand now his comments. The first thing that jump out at me is the poor editing. Most legal books, even paralegal books, are competently written, except for this one. I find the argument difficult to follow and the logic seems circular in many instances. I'm fairly well versed with in rem jurisdiction, but had a hard time trying follow the explanation in this book. I'm assuming that it is because it is trying to appeal to an IT crowd as well as those with legal backgrounds. Unfortunately this book ends up doing both poorly. Given that however, it does provide a good general introduction to the topic and a good place to start if you are new to the concept of cyber law as a discipline. Stated another way, its better than nothing.

(Hide Review...)  A non common law layer comment.

An very updated text. Concise, precise and well presented. There is no bored and extensive dissertations about what should be the law of internet. This is a pragmatic view. Every topic is well documented and comes with several sugested sites to visit for reference or aditional information. Be aware this is an American Legal System analisys, it does not explores civil law implications. Useful for beginners and advanced legal professionals working in the web industry.
