Information Technology Law
Synopsis
Do you download music or shop online?
Who regulates large companies such as Google and Facebook?
How safe is your personal data on the internet?
Information technology affects all aspects of modern life. From the information shared on websites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to online shopping and mobile devices, it is rare that a person is not touched by some form of IT every day.
Information Technology Law examines the legal dimensions of these everyday interactions with technology and the impact on privacy and data protection, as well as their relationship to other areas of substantive law, including intellectual property and criminal proceedings. Since the pioneering publication of the first edition over twenty years ago, this forward-thinking text has established itself as the most readable and comprehensive textbook on the subject, covering the key topics
in this dynamic and fast-moving field in a clear and engaging style. Focussing primarily on developments within the UK and EU, this book provides a broad-ranging introduction and analysis of the increasingly complex relationship between the law and IT.
Information Technology Law is essential reading for students of IT law and also appropriate for business and management students, as well as IT and legal professionals.

What Reviewers Are Saying
It is a very useful textbook which covers most of the "black letter" law in information technology. The book is up to date in a fast developing area and broad in its scope. I find it is easy to structure my lectures around the contents of the book. * Dr Subhajit Basu, University of Leeds * An excellent, high quality textbook; well-written, clear, and up-to-date. * Dr Andreas Ruhmkorf, University of Sheffield * This is the best book we have found for our module. The style is very clear and well signposted with lots of side headings and interesting case law. * Maureen Johnson, University of Hertfordshire *
