Summary
Connect and Converge is a practical, issues based textbook, which includes reflective teaching materials for students and ready-reference material for practitioners. Unlike existing media law texts that consider each of the "heads of law" inseperate chapters, this book focuses on examining a set of practical issues that arise in the regulation of media and communications.
