Overview

Increasingly, technology has pushed us to revisit, redefine, and change the way we talk about and view privacy, often leaving many readers to wonder if current laws infringe upon or protect our civil rights. Supporting Social Studies curriculum, this relevant edition pushes these questions even further by asking readers to use a series of diverse essays to make assessments and form opinions on various privacy right issues. Topics such as privacy in the workplace, centrally-located information sites, and privacy within the bounds of law enforcement are discussed.
