Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 5 Up-Internet filtering is a hot topic in school and public libraries, and is the subject of much discussion, and confusion, in the media. Herumin tries to crystallize this complicated topic so that young people might understand the relationship between free speech and the Internet. The information is presented in 10 chapters, each of which begins with a brief and simply written introduction. The subtopics are highlighted in bold print, and specific court decisions are referenced throughout. Black-and-white photographs appear occasionally, but they are dull and outdated. Those interested in this ongoing controversial debate will find simple explanations of CDA (Communications Decency Act), CIPA (Children's Internet Protection Act), COPA (Child Online Protection Act), and COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act), but they will not come away with much more. Tamara Roleff's Censorship (Greenhaven, 2001) offers more in-depth information, but Herumin's book is a good starting point.-Pat Scales, South Carolina Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities, Greenville
