Designed to give the reader extra support in order to succeed, our Study Edition of Wilcox's Public Relations: Strategies and Tactics offers perforated chapter practice tests at the end of the book, an optional Practice Test Solutions Manual, and an Instructor's Testing Manual with solutions to the practice tests.
Containing the same engaging and effective features that have made Public Relations: Strategies and Tactics such a success, the Study Edition offers an additional bonus: perforated chapter quizzes. Because the answers to the practice tests are not included in the Study Edition, the tests can serve as quizzes or homework. The Practice Test Solutions Manual (ISBN: 0-205-50728-X), containing the answers, can be packaged with the Study Edition. Also included with this option is our Tutor Center Access Card to provide the reader with extra study support from our qualified Tutor Center professionals by phone, fax, email, and the Internet. With either ordering option, readers get a valuable and effective study system not found in other books!
Using real-life case studies, Public Relations: Strategies and Tactics helps the reader better understand the basic concepts, strategies, and tactics practiced in public relations today. The book presents an engaging and comprehensive overview of the principles, concepts, and methods of public relations.

From the Back Cover
New to the Eighth Edition
- In an age of corporate scandals, terrorism and national health issues, a new chapter on “Conflict Management: Dealing with Issues, Risks and Crises” lays the groundwork for understanding and coping with various crises
- Merges chapters on “What is Public Relations” and “The Individual in Public Relations” into a more comprehensive introductory chapter that focuses on both the field and the professionals within it.
- The Tactics section, with chapters on written, spoken and visual techniques, has been wholly revised and placed earlier in the text to give students some hands-on work samples earlier in the course.
- Unifies three time-honored boxed features―Ethics, Global, and Insights―under an “On the Job” banner to enhance the applied focus of the book.
- Technology coverage has been updated throughout the book, particularly in the three Tactics chapters and in Chapter 13: New Technologies in Public Relations, helping students to understand the impact of technological innovations on the future of public relations.
- Includes new data on the top public relations firms and codes of ethics from national and international trade associations, providing the most current information on the Public Relations industry today.
“I had forgotten how good and thorough this text is. It has always been the standard of the introductory public relations textbook and it remains so today. Its content is up-to-date, well researched, and clearly organized in a way that instructors and their students will appreciate.”
Maureen Taylor, Rutgers University
“This text definitely achieves one of my primary objectives in an intro course ― an understanding of compromises. It makes the readers aware of how much of the symbolic world around them is the result of Public Relations.”
Josh Boyd, Purdue University

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
