Information Technology Law is the ideal companion for a course of study on IT law and the ways in which it is evolving in response to rapid technological and social change. The fourth edition of this ground-breaking textbook develops its unique examination of the legal processes and their relationship to the modern 'information society'.

Comprehensive and engaging, Information Technology Law takes an original and thought-provoking approach to examining this fast-moving area of law in context.Online resources- Additional chapters on the Digital Sphere and Virtual Environments- Audio podcasts suitable for revision- Updates to the law post-publication- A flashcard glossary of key terms and concepts- Outline answers to end of chapter questions
