This study, written in the context of its first publication in
1970, discusses and documents the invasion of privacy by the
corporation and the social institution in the search for efficiency
in information processing. Discussing areas such as the impact of
the computer on administration, privacy and the storage on
information, the authors assess the technical and social
feasibility of constructing integrated data banks to cover the
details of populations. The book was hugely influential both in
terms of scholarship and legislation, and the years following saw
the Data Protection Act of 1984, which was then consolidated by the
Act of 1998. The topics under discussion remain of great concern to
the public in our increasingly web-based world, ensuring the
continued relevance of this title to academics and students with an
interest in data protection and public privacy.
