Uta Kohl is a Lecturer in Law at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth.

Review of the hardback: 'Jurisdiction and the Internet provides a thoughtful and engaging consideration of the past, present and future law. The authors enthusiasm for this subject is clear. Each chapter is a loving analysis with compelling arguments for change. …Jurisdiction and the Internet is well written and provides an engaging account of the law. …Jurisdiction and the Internet is a unique look at the important issue of jurisdiction and its application to the internet. It is superbly written and explains the important principles in a clear and accessible way. By doing so, it encourages the reader to delve further into the text or undertake further research. Its price also means that it it excellent value for money.' Student Law Journal
