Description
Book SynopsisThe internet and digital technology provide many opportunities to commit and facilitate crime. All developed and developing countries face similar challenges in this rapidly changing area. This book provides an analysis of cybercrime laws in Australia, Canada, the UK and the USA.
Trade Review'As a doctrinal analysis, this title is likely to become a classic among cyber crime titles and will be useful to attorneys, researchers, students and general readers seeking to understand the interconnected relationship these four countries have developed in their separate and joint battles against cyber crime.' Laurie Selwyn, Freelance Law Librarian
'Even for a non-lawyer, such as this reviewer, the concepts are well clarified and the language is accessible. It should probably sit on the shelves of anyone involved in the prevention, investigation or prosecution of CyberCrime and, more importantly, be taken down, read and referred to regularly. It will certainly form part of my library and is likely to find its way onto my students' reading lists.' Angus M. Marshal, Lecturer in CyberSecurity and Independent 'Expert' on Digital Evidence
