This textbook is unique in its focus on how public relations impacts society. This is a minor or assumed topic in other textbooks. In addition to having effects of PR as it main focus, the book will include cases and ethical challenges in each chapter and cover in-depth a number of topics that are seldom considered elsewhere (e.g. the internet, International, public policy).
