"Studying privacy is an ongoing, evolutionary process, just like the development of this book. What began as a proposal on cyberharassment of LGBTQ persons grew into a doctoral dissertation on information privacy, generally. That, in turn, grew into several law review articles analyzing a broad range of topics, from sharing intimate photos to information flow in intellectual property. Throughout this time, my thinking on privacy evolved. It evolved after law school, then again after online and face-to-face harassment took national attention in 2010, and then again after reading the works of Emile Durkheim, Erving Goffman, Julie Cohen, Daniel Solove, Helen Nissenbaum, and others"- This book is perfect for scholars and students of law, sociology, policy, history, and other social sciences. But because it is written in an accessible way and uses real examples from everyday life, it is also attractive to anyone interested in privacy, from informed readers to activists.
