This title deals with the impact of information communications technologies on the law, and with the convergence between these fields and IT Law.
The book examines the development of the law to keep pace with technological advancements influencing information and its value, safe keeping and commercialisation. It deals in detail with technical matters, but doesn’t lose sight of the values underlying the interface of information and communications technology and the law. It grapples with the many legal problems caused by technology, but also appreciates the many advantages it has for the practice and teaching of law.
