... a study of Internet law that leaves no stone in cyberspace unturned... Biegel proves to be a gifted teacher.... Biegel's well-researched and carefully organized text is one of the most comprehensive of its kind.
Harvard Journal of Law and Technology
Stuart Biegel explores the dilemmas of present-day cyberspace with the confidence of a native Netizen, the sharp eye of an anthropologist, and the incisiveness of a lawyer. The result is a book that is true to the spirit of the Net without defying it—a nuanced study that synthesizes the best understandings we have of when, where, and how to apply the elements of the contemporary regulatory toolbox to the global Internet.

I recommend for any instructors or researchers who need a popular reference to the recent legal history of the Internet.

It is in systematically presenting to the reader an actual analytical framework that Biegel's book becomes highly recommended reading.

Wherever you travel in your search for a coherent view of the law of cyberspace, and wherever you end up in your evaluation of the legal problems presented by this new global medium, you'll find Stuart Biegel's roadmap very useful.

The law of cyberspace has moved beyond the question of whether regulation is possible to the question of how, or how best. In this powerful and comprehensive book, Stuart Biegel maps a balanced and sensible strategy for preserving values important to our tradition in this new environment for social life, cyberspace. No work better synthesizes and advances a debate that has been only partly grasped by others before.
