A primeira parte do livro, portanto, dedica-se a exposicao historica da conformacao do regime regulatorio das telecomunicacoes no Brasil, partindo-se do pressuposto de que a melhor forma de se adentrar um novo campo do conhecimento e a de se inserir o leitor no dia-a-dia da regulacao, fazendo-o de testemunha ocular da historia de discussoes politico-juridicas de conformacao das telecomunicacoes. A segunda parte do livro, por sua vez, introduz o leitor nos meandros das definicoes proprias ao objeto do direito das telecomunicacoes, qual seja, o servico de telecomunicacoes, suas classificacoes juridicas e os regimes juridicos delas derivados.
