Resumen: The threats to privacy are well known: the National Security Agency tracks our phone calls; Google records where we go online and how we set our thermostats; Facebook changes our privacy settings when it wishes; Target gets hacked and loses control of our credit card information; our medical records are available for sale to strangers; our children are fingerprinted and their every test score saved for posterity; and small robots patrol our schoolyards and drones may soon fill our skies. The contributors to this anthology don't simply describe these problems or warn about the loss of privacy—they propose solutions. They look closely at business practices, public policy, and technology design, and ask, “Should this continue? Is there a better approach?" They take seriously the dictum of Thomas Edison: “What one creates with his hand, he should control with his head." It's a new approach to the privacy debate, one that assumes privacy is worth protecting, that there are solutions to be found, and that the future is not yet known. This volume will be an essential reference for policy makers and researchers, journalists and scholars, and others looking for answers to one of the biggest challenges of our modern day. The premise is clear: there's a problem-let's find a solution.

Library Journal Review

It's difficult to avoid leaving trails of electronic data about our health, education, social lives, and shopping history, and that data is often stored, mined, and sold without our knowledge or consent. Sometimes our data is compromised owing to incompetence or malicious intent. This collection of short essays by privacy experts wrestles with the changing concept of privacy that comes with the ubiquitous sharing of personal information through social networks and sweeping data collection by government agencies and corporations. The writings discuss the court decisions that shape today's privacy protections and the ways in which related laws have failed to keep pace with technology. While Julia -Angwin's Dragnet Nation contains a fascinating account of difficulties that she encounters in attempting to control her own personal data, this title's overarching perspective is thought provoking and urgently needed. Both books persuasively argue that people cannot easily control the use and dissemination of their personal information. VERDICT An engaging read for those who wish to learn more about policies and technological measures that experts recommend to champion privacy as a basic human right.-Laurie Neuerburg, Victoria -Coll.-Univ. of Houston Lib. © Copyright 2015.
