About This Book
In In No Place to Hide, award-winning Washington Post reporter Robert O'Harrow, Jr., pulls back the curtain on an unsettling trend: the emergence of a data-driven surveillance society intent on giving us the conveniences and services we crave, like cell phones, discount cards, and electronic toll passes, while watching us more closely than ever before. Since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, information industry giants have been enlisted as private intelligence services for homeland security. At a time when companies routinely collect billions of details about nearly every American adult, No Place to Hide reveals how people can lose control of their privacy and identities. O'Harrow writes, "This book is all about you and your personal information -- and the story isn't pretty." No Place to Hide will be available in paperback in January 2006.Quick Menu
