Some may view public relations as the manipulation of public opinion, while others see it as the conduit for successful communication between organizations and their clients. Regardless of one's opinion, the Encyclopedia of Public Relations provides the facts, opinions, and data for a thoughtful analysis of the profession. According to the editor, "this work intends to provide an honest but positively biased treatment of public relations." And so it does.
Nearly 500 articles cover topics in the fields of communication, advertising, marketing, and politics. Articles are arranged alphabetically, each is signed, and many come with a bibliography and see also references. The primary focus is on public relations in the U.S.; however, some entries highlight the practice of public relations abroad. Terminology (Logo, Market share, Press kit) and theories and models (Game theory, Health belief model) get substantial attention. Also treated are individuals (Roger Ailes, P. T. Barnum); organizations (Federal Communications Commission, PR Newswire); and historical aspects (Exxon and the Valdez crisis, Railroad industry in the 19th century). Illustrations consist of a few black-and-white photographs and tables.
Several appendixes offer additional content, among them "The Public Relations Society of America Code of Ethics," "Milestones in the History of Public Relations," and "Public Relations Online Resources." The "Reader's Guide" that precedes the entries groups entry headings under recurring public relations themes such as Ethics, Jargon, and management.
The Encyclopedia of Public Relations will complement titles such as The Encyclopedia of Communication and Information (Macmillan, 2001). Recommended for academic and large public libraries. Sue Polanka

Review
"The Encyclopedia of Public Relations provides the facts, opinions, and data for a thoughtful analysis of the profession. According to the editor, 'this work intends to provide an honest but positively biased treatment of public relations.' And so it does. . . . Recommended for academic and large public libraries." (Sue Polanka BOOKLIST )
For academic purposes, a good subject encyclopedia should describe the theory, practice and development of a discipline. If aimed at students, such tools should also provide the foundation for further research. With this groundbreaking guide to public relations, Robert Heath has accomplished all these tasks in exemplary fashion. . . . This outstanding set is highly recommended to academic and large public libraries. (John R.M. Lawrence Lawrence Looks at Books )
"Its emphasis is on historical, philosophical, and theoretical aspects of the field. What we have here then is an encyclopedia that continues the gulf between the academic world, the profession, and the public. " (Ray E. Hiebert Science Direct )
