Choice Review
As the first decade of the 21st century closes, the present-day networked and connected society (or information society) increasingly must cope with electronic intrusion. This form of intrusion has caused and continues to cause many significant problems, and to pose great risks for individuals, governments, and businesses alike. The primary areas of interest involve privacy intrusion, and intrusion into information systems and infrastructure. The rapid growth of information communications technology, and society's reliance on it, has not only created beneficial applications but also a myriad of sociolegal and socioeconomic concerns and problems. This new volume fills a vacuum in the current literature. The work is organized into three distinct sections: (1) "Social and Economic Dynamics of Electronic Crime," (2) "Electronic Intrusion," and (3) "Forensic Challenges for Intrusion." Each chapter is authoritative, clear, succinct, and easily comprehended. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-level undergraduates and above; general readers. W.
