The idea that the law of defamation protects people's reputation is axiomatic, yet there is no coherent legal definition of the concept of reputation. This book develops a new theory of reputation through a comparative analysis of how courts in England, the United States and other common law countries have responded to shifting attitudes towards moral values and developed new tests for what should count as 'defamatory'.
