A provocative work that explains where and when confidentiality
begins, ends, and breaks The variety and pervasiveness of
confidentiality issues today is breathtaking. Not a day passes
without a media report on a breach of confidentiality, a claim of
attorney-client privilege, a journalist jailed for refusing to
reveal a source, a medical or hospital record improperly disclosed,
or a major business deal exposed by anonymous sources. In
Confidence examines confidential issues that arise in various
disciplines and relationships and considers which should be
protected and which should not. Ronald Goldfarb organizes the book
around professionals for whom confidentiality is an issue of
weighty importance: government officials, attorneys, medical
personnel, psychotherapists, clergy, business people, and
journalists. In a chapter devoted to each, and in another on
spousal privilege, he lays out specific issues and the law's
positions on them. He discusses an array of court cases in which
confidentiality issues played an important role and decisions were
often surprising and controversial. Goldfarb also looks into the
criteria that should be used when determining whether secrets must
be revealed. His nuanced analysis reveals how federal government
practices and technological capabilities increasingly challenge the
boundaries of privacy, and his thoughtful insights open the door to
meaningful new debate.
