This supplement to The Lobbying Manual: A Complete Guide to Federal Lobbying Law and Practice, 4th Edition features several entirely new chapters: one on the Obama Ethics Pledge, another on "honest services" fraud, and two dealing with the practice of lobbying, including perspectives on the lobbying profession and the Noerr-Pennington doctrine. There is also a new section offering comparative perspectives on, respectively, the lobbying laws of Canada and those of the European Community and its members. These should be of significant interest to practitioners whose clients do business abroad.
