In recent years, the ability of states and corporations to track people has grown exponentially. Yet how does widespread surveillance square with the U.S. Constitution? After all, the Fourth Amendment protects citizens against unreasonable search and seizure. In More Essential than Ever, Stephen Shulhofer explores the changes wrought by the new surveillance regime through the lens of the Fourth Amendment's meaning and history. A rich yet pithy account of the various methods that companies and the state use to scrutinize us, this book makes a powerful case for the importance of the Fourth Amendment in protecting both privacy rights and civil liberties in our surveillance age.
About the Author: Stephen J. Schulhofer is Robert B. McKay Professor of Law at the New York University School of Law. His books include Rethinking the Patriot Act, The Enemy Within, and Unwanted Sex.
