"Although censorship may seem to be a thing of the past, current controversies over books, movies, and Web sites prove that it is a very timely and critical issue. Encyclopedia of Censorship, New Edition, fully updated and revised with more than 50 percent new material, presents a range of information about the history and evolution of censorship and its role in society today." "Covering the control of all forms of expression from the past to the present - from the office of the censor in ancient Rome to Internet regulation in the computer age - this thorough reference examines every facet of censorship. With an easy-to-use A-to-Z format perfect for high school and college students, as well as anyone with an interest in censorship and its politics, Encyclopedia of Censorship, New Edition brings this important topic up to date through the new millennium."--BOOK JACKET |
