"This book is about the First Amendment's robust career in Louisiana, which has a legal tradition unlike that of any other state. As explained in our opening chapter, Louisiana's legal heritage derives from both continental law and common law. This gives our body of laws a hybrid vigor that serves as a better model for understanding freedom of expression in politics and business around the world. Although First Amendment Law in Louisiana was chiefly written for a college student readership, practicing attorneys and the general public will find this book's chapters invaluable to understanding the legal principles and precedents behind many of the communication issues of the day"--Foreword.
