The initial part covers a host of US privacy laws, from 1970 (Fair Credit Reporting Act) to the present. The final major segment of the book provides recent developments including national and international privacy directives. The final part contains what appears to be a full panoply of resources from other books, law review symposia, and the Internet." -- Evan Hendricks, Privacy Times, Volue 18 Number 20, October 28, 1998
