<p><strong>Adrienne Muir, Loughborough University:</strong></p><p>It is recommended as a core text to buy… Overall, I think the book would be even more useful if it reflected changes in the publishing world… This is currently my favoured book. Other recommendations tend to be on specific topics. The students appreciate having one accessible overview of the issues… I am not aware of a UK focused title that meets the needs outlined.</p><p>Anna Faherty, Kingston University:</p><p>I think <i>Publishing Law</i> is an accessible, real-world guide to the key legal issues in publishing. I owned a copy when I was a commissioning editor and now encourage all our students to invest in a copy (not just for the course, but also as a handy reference when then are working in the industry). I’m not aware of another title that has the concise and accessible (yet authoritative) appeal of this book.</p><p>Beverley Tarquini, Oxford Brookes University:</p><p>Digital rights – more examples and case studies – in fact a whole new chapter would be good....I am unaware of any direct competition as this book is specifically geared to publishing.</p>
