At long last, the American Dialect Society is pleased to announce publication

of:



Publication of the American Dialect Society No. 79,

Under Cover of Law: More on the Legality of Surreptitious Recordings

This is a sequel to their essay "On the Legality and Ethics of Surreptitious

Recording" in PADS 76 (1991). The new volume updates the information on

federal and state laws, offers further explanations, and answers questions

posed by readers of that essay.

University of Alabama Press, Box 870380, Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487-0380;

phone (800) 825-9980. The earlier 88-page volume, PADS 76, is available for

$11.



But there is another way. All members of the American Dialect Society get

issues of PADS as part of their membership. If you are a current member, you

will get your copy soon; the mailing is being prepared in Tuscaloosa right

now. If you are not yet a member but join by June 30, your membership will

include PADS 79.
