Reviews
Identity Theft in Today's World is a choice and comprehensive collection for those seeking to understand the crime better and defend themselves from it. * Midwest Book Review *
This well-documented book, which includes 17 pages of footnotes and 19 pages of references, provides an extensive account of the dramatic increase in the often-embellished media accounts of this crime in the United States since the late 1990s. . . . McNally concludes that people should not panic, but that they need to guard and monitor their personal information more carefully. Summing Up: Recommended. * Choice *
