The new edition of Admap Magazine, the leading communications management title, takes a critical and
in-depth look at the world of public relations asking whether PR is 's8216;More Than Just Gloss.'s8217;
In the PR supplement, four figures from the frontline of modern PR 's8211; Gerry McCusker, Rachel Hawkes, Patrick Frison-Roche and James Davies 's8211; have each contributed articles that
effectively analyse whether PR is simply 's8216;whitewash's8217; or a core communications discipline.
McCusker, PR analyst and author of the provocative book 's8216;Public Relations Disasters's8217;, leads the pro-PR charge. He insists PR is a critical element of any new advertising or
communications campaign given the rise of citizen media and the growing need for 2-way communication.
Hawkes investigates the potential synergies between PR and SEO (Search Engine Marketing); Frison-Roche takes a hard look at the concept and feasibility of Euro PR while Davies has a fresh
take on the age-old problem of PR evaluation and measuring impact.
Admap contributor Gerry McCusker commented, 's8220;Anyone in a PR job, PR firm or in Consumer or B2B communications will find these cutting edge articles fresh, insightful and informed
about the direction in which PR, and marketing in general, is heading.'s8221;
