Description
Tamara R. Piety examines the impact of expansive First Amendment protections for commercial speech on various aspects of society.
She argues that such protections can limit governmental power to address public policy issues, and that they may have unintended consequences for public health, safety, and welfare, as well as the reliability of consumer information and financial markets.
This book draws on evidence from fields including public relations, marketing, behavioral economics, psychology, and cognitive studies to explore the implications of commercial expression protections.
