Book excerpt: 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.

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.
