Textbook on Cyber Law

............................................................................................................................
Description
Technology changes very rapidly necessitating the need for accompanying jurisprudence. No wonder, Cyberlaw as a jurisprudential discipline is also changing very rapidly. It is thus but natural to expect that the fast paced changes in technology jurisprudence would need to be appropriately covered in text books so as to make text books more topical and relevant. I am glad to see the second Edition of Text Book on Cyberlaw being published. My son Pavan's efforts in simplifying complicated nuances pertaining to Cyberlaw and presenting them in a simple and easy language for the students, has distinctly found wide acceptance amongst the readers of this book.
No wonder, the Text Book on Cyberlaw is increasingly being referred to and referenced in Cyberlaw teachings in different universities and institutions. It is heartening to note that the second Edition of the Text Book on Cyberlaw is updated with the latest case laws and legal nuances impacting the subjects under discussions.I am sure that students would find this Text Book easier to read and hence would be immensely benefited by the same. I hope students learn from the various principles and fundamentals enshrined in the Text Book on Cyberlaw so as to sharpen their future knowledge about Cyberlaw as a discipline.
