The Practice of Public Relations, 15th Edition, is a textbook by Fraser P. Seitel that provides guidance for communications work in an evolving media landscape. The volume links theoretical principles with the practical insights required to address modern professional challenges.

Core subjects include the historical foundations of the discipline, fundamental communication principles, organizational management, and diverse stakeholder relations. In addition, the text explores strategic messaging across both traditional news organizations and expanding social media platforms.

To support applied understanding, the book integrates contemporary case studies, professional interviews, and relevant news stories that illustrate how practitioners address complex communication issues in everyday practice.
