The authors bring together subjects usually treated in separate texts to explore legal frameworks that exist for electronic information, how organisations handle information, how we communicate electronically and e-government activities. This work is an excellent guide to have at hand, capturing the challenges and issues facing one’s clients as they use electronic services in their day-to-lives. For both lawyers and non-legal professionals, particularly those working in IT and their managers, it provides an introduction to each issue, followed with analysis of legal risks and obligations and a discussion of key case law and legislation. Readers can access consolidated guidance on the legal risks across a range of contexts, including:  e-banking, electronic discovery, identity theft, copyright risks for ISP Providers, data protection, web accessibility, cross-border privacy challenges, and privacy issues relating to electronic health records. Electronic Information and the Law provides a much-needed overview of an ever-evolving field of law. Privacy lawyers, in-house counsel, students, information technology managers and professionals will find this work to be an invaluable resource in their day-to-day work.
