Public Relations (Analysis)
By combining coverage of fundamental PR campaign concepts with the classic design of a workbook, The PR Campaigns Worktext by Maria Elles Scott walks students through building their own PR campaigns. Unlike other campaigns texts, this worktext presents concepts, applications, and examples in campaign building; Scott then ask students to complete worksheets with focused tasks so students have all the tools and direction to create and customize their specific campaign.
