"The Privacy Handbook provides a comprehensive reference on privacy guidelines, as well as instruction on policy development and implementation, to guide corporations in establishing a strong privacy policy. The authors, seasoned experts on corporate management, also cover individual privacy issues that must be addressed by companies, such as the privacy of customers.

The book begins by introducing key topics at the heart of the privacy debate, looking at domestic and international privacy advocates, and reviewing current privacy legislation and its impact at the microeconomic level. The Handbook then moves on to the relationship between privacy and national security, and the software tools available to individuals to deter privacy invasions.

The authors conclude with a comprehensive examination of establishing privacy controls designed to verify a company's proactive compliance with privacy policies and regulations.".
