Speaking Our Minds Conversations With the People
The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 5/5 from 1 reviews Breathes Life into Law | ||||||||||||||||||
The book is a compilation of interviews with lawyers, plaintiffs and defendants from 10 key First Amendment law cases that deal with topics such as freedom of expression, libel, privacy, the use of anonymous sources, free press vs. fair trial, commercial speech, broadcast and cable regulation, and new media regulation.
While Russomanno probably intended this book to be used in a Mass Communication Law class, it is also a fascinating read for anyone interested in our right to "speak our minds." The book is well written (especially the Nebraska Press chapter), well researched and interesting on many levels. Definitely a great addition to any collection.
If you're into the First Amendment, you must have this book!
