Product Description

Review

'An excellent, accessible one-stop legal reference ... it covers the publishing process, including electronic publishing, from idea to distribution, with the non-lawyer in mind.' - Ian McGowan, Centre for Publishing Studies, University of Stirling

'An invaluable resource for those practising or studying the business of publishing.' - Paul Richardson, Oxford Centre for Publishing Studies, Oxford Brookes University --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Product Description

With an introduction to UK and EU law, full coverage of electronic rights and e-commerce issues and detailed coverage of changes in UK and EU legislation, this third edition of Publishing Law continues in its status as a comprehensive guide to the law as it affects the publishing process.

Hugh Jones and Christopher Benson address a range of key legal issues in the publishing process and explain legal points with reference to important statutes, cases and relevant trade practices. The issues include:

  • copyright, moral rights, commissioning and contracts, including online access and ebooks
  • libel and other legal risks such as negligence, privacy and obscenity
  • infringement and defences such as fair dealing; trade marks and passing off
  • consumer law, data protection, advertising and promotion, distribution and export.

This work is a comprehensive handbook for publishers, authors and agents, and anyone who needs a practical understanding of where and how the law may apply.

4.0 out of 5 stars Publishing Law, 25 Oct 2010
This review is from: Publishing Law (Paperback)
Publishing Law by Hugh Jones, Chris Benson, Christopher Benson
Considering its rather dry subject matter, this is a very well written and, most importantly, for me, accessible book which I have read as a primary text for an MA in Publishing. Highly recommended as so often these professional readers are too heavy and jargon laiden to be of any real benefit to the student.

4.0 out of 5 stars Recommendation for the Publisher... (and Note for purchaser), 1 July 2011
By Jason Bradley "Jason Bradley" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Publishing Law, Second Edition (Kindle Edition)
The book is exactly what the description says that is. The only thing I wish I had done, before rushing to purchase: Click to look at the paperback (or hard cover) edition and "Look Inside" at the Table of Contents. If I had done that I would have realized the book's focus is on U.K. & European Union Publishing Law. If I had read the editorial reviews, I probably would have been able to guess the focus would not be on U.S. law.

I would recommend the publisher update the product description to reflect the body (or bodies) of law that the publication focuses on.

I'm keeping the book, as the information will still be extremely useful to be able to reference & research.
