Data Protection: A Practical Guide to UK and EU Law
Product ID: 1701242
Now in its third edition, this invaluable handbook offers practical solutions to issues arising in relation to data protection law. It is fully updated and expanded to include coverage of all of the significant developments in the practice of data protection, and takes account of the wealth of guidance published by the Information Commissioner since the last edition. The third edition includes new material on the changes to the Commissioner's powers and new guidance from the Commissioner's office, coverage of new cases on peripheral aspects of data protection compliance and examples of enforcement, the new code on CCTV processing, the new employment code, clarification on the definition of "personal data", the binding corporate rules on the exemption to the export data ban and the new ICT set of model contractual provisions for data exports, and the proposed action by the EU against the UK for failing to implement the Data Protection Directive appropriately. There are new chapters on terminology and data security. Review: A good book for getting an understanding of the UK Data Protection and Privacy laws - I am pretty much new to this topic and found this book to be useful in getting an understanding of the EU Data Privacy laws and the UK data privacy laws in particular. Review: great resource - Sometimes I am unsure on DP law and I can't find a definitive answer via Google. This book always delivers. I can find what I need very quickly. A great reference book on DP, especially in relation to safe harbour.

This book written in 2008 has been overtaken by changes in the law in the UK
There have been major changes in the UK law and regulation in the last couple of years. Accordingly, the book was out of date and did not give a summary of current law. Also the advertisement did not give the date of issue: if it had I would have known and would not have ordered the book.

Data protection Guide
OK did not like this data book as much as data protection in the UK. This book is structured to EU and it is not as practical as it thinks it is. Mainly legislative content. Not very consumer friendly.

Buy the book not the kindle version
While the content is excellent, this doesn't work (for me) as a Kindle ebook on my iphone. Completely unintelligible. Pity. I'd recommend buyers buy the physical book.
