The Death of Privacy in the 21st Century.
This book is a far-reaching, entertaining and thought-provoking look at a wide range of privacy-related issues, from databases, video surveillance, DNA testing, and intellectual property controls to biological terrorism. It poses a disturbing question: how can we protect our personal freedoms (especially our right to privacy) in an age in which technology makes it so easy to invade that privacy, and in which so many people willingly give their privacy away in return for additional security? This book will have particular appeal to those interested in public policy and social issues, particularly those concerned about the social impact of technology.
