Rich in scholarly foundations combined with actual practice, Public Relations Online: Lasting Concepts for Changing Media connects the social and technological forces that are changing public relations. Using plain-talk discussion of theory and research, this book helps readers identify how lasting concepts for effective public relations can be applied in a changing media environment, and how a changing media environment affects the practice of effective public relations.

Key Features:

Provides "Hands-Online" activities : Internet resource exercises challenge readers to apply concepts to their world in "real-time" on the day that they read the chapter. Offers "Questionable Claims" boxes : Discussions present alternative perspectives on sometimes-over-hyped claims and serve to help sharpen critical-thinking skills. Discusses computer systems and networks : Server-side and peer-to-peer technologies are introduced as models for understanding online public relations. Focuses on how real people are using online media to communicate : Online public relations is more a matter of what people are doing with online media technologies than what these technologies are doing to people.
